Leave yourself in my care if you choose
I won’t be held responsible
For all the damage that I do
So don’t complain
When I kick your heart over the coals
And give it back to you riddled with holes
Put yourself at my mercy if you must
But don’t hold me responsible
When I leave you to rot and rust
Don’t be surprised
When I turn fire into soot
And trample your hope underfoot
Maybe I was in finite supply
But I have salted the mine –
Get in line, get in line, get in line
You believe that you’re safe and you’re strong
That I’ve dismantled the bomb –
But you’re wrong
There is danger all around
I may choose to run you aground
Or I may choose to let you drown
You have been warned –
When I decide enough is enough
I will ride roughshod over your love
