This is a warning, this is a heads-up
I start fires in the morning before you get up
It's not like I want to, wanna drive you away
And it’s not that I need to, but I want you to stay
And you're not the only one
You're not the first one I say this to
You could be kicking and screaming
And trying to tell me it’s not true
But I promise you
I'm gonna mess it up
Gonna light the fire, watch it burning up
I'm gonna mess it up
Gonna light the fire, watch it burning up
I'm never gonna change, not gonna grow up
I'm gonna light the fire, watch it burning up, burning up
I swear that I'm trying, I'm giving all I got
Guess I came without a warning, still you took your shot
So what if I want you, I'm only gonna drive you away
So what if I need you and I want you to stay?
And you’re not the only one
You’re not the first one I say this to
You could be kicking and screaming
And trying to tell me it's not true
But I promise you
I’m gonna mess it up
I'm gonna light the fire, watch it burning up
I'm never gonna change, not gonna grow up
I'm gonna light the fire, watch it burning up, burning up
I’m never gonna change
You should know by now
Never gonna change
I'm never gonna change
You should know by now
Never gonna change
'Cause I will mess it up
Gonna light the fire, watch it burning up
I'm gonna mess it up
I'm gonna light the fire, watch it burning up
I'm never gonna change, not gonna grow up
I'm gonna light the fire, watch it burning up, burning up
I'm gonna mess it up
I'm gonna light the fire, watch it burning up
I'm never gonna change, not gonna grow up
I'm gonna light the fire, watch it burning up, burning up
