Lyrics for Angela Baker and My Obession with Fire

I won't forget the day that, that I came to And I started thinking that there's more Than just perfect prom queens and silver spoons And all I ever wanted was someone to Knock me back to the bliss of ignorance 'Cause I feel like running head first into traffic. And so I'm here to say That thoughts in bed with pain. I won't forget the day that, that I found God In a kitchen knife now and on my arm So paint the pale white floor with, with my red life And tell myself this pain is the pain I love As I swallow the pills of happiness And you watch me fall like New York in an earthquake And so I'm here to say That thoughts in bed with pain. I stand outside my pretty house I light a match to start the fire I call the cops to let 'em know It's 22 Walthery Ave. I thought I wanted this. I thought I wanted this. (I'm here to say) I said I wanted some more attention I thought I wanted a story ending. (I love the pain, I hate the pain) I just give in. (I love the pain, I hate the pain) I think that the truth is I'm scared I think that I'm just scared to live I think that the truth is I'm scared I think that the truth is I'm everything that I hate.
