Playing with fire

Natalie Swinney 1987 (Oklahoma)



you're playing with fire but little do you know i am the fire, i'll burn through your lies consume your desire, in this game of love you'll feel the heat rising higher.
you thought you could control my flame but i'm a wild fire that cannot be tamed, i'll leave you scortched and broken in my wake as your heart turns to ashes, for your mistakes.
you thought you were invincable, untouchable too, but now your realizing the power i hold over you, with every touch and every kiss that ignites our desires,
you're playing with fire, i am the fire.
