Glass Castles - Bonfire Lyrics

Light another up
Down another shot
I'm not always like this
But once I start I can't seem to stop
I swore last night
Would be the last time
But then I got invited to this party
And take a look at where I am right now

I know what they expect of me
Now I know where I stand
But I've become too reliant
To let this life go

I can't put out the bonfire
I helped to light it after all
And I guess I'd rather go out
In a blaze than a flicker

Pop another pill
Take another tab
I may be off my face
But trust me, it could be worse
At least I'm not
Cutting myself (Ooh how edgy)
Don't talk about that, it's too real
Just tell another "funny" joke instead

I know what they expect of me
Instead of being who I am
I just have to play the role
That I wrote for myself

I can't put out the bonfire
I helped to light it after all
And I guess I'd rather go out
In a blaze than a flicker
