Cameron Whitcomb – Gasoline & Matches
I regret the letters sent the poems wrote
Those sober notes the flights I bought from coast to coasts
The codependent overdose
I opened up my heart to you
I rearranged my future
I used to find it funny but
I’ve seem to lost my humour
I regret the time we spent
the promises you never kept
The inconsistent sympathy
The overwhelming ignorance
I opened my home to you
You had my mothers heart
And now she keeps on asking
why I tore you both apart
And I’ll burn it all
Gasoline and matches
Our photographs in ashes
And I’ll blame it all
On what I thought was magic
Through rose colored glasses
Anything I can I’ll throw it all away
But all that remains
Are the memories we made
And I wish I could take it back
The hours spent in planes n cabs
The dollars that I should’ve saved
Instead I gave you all I had
Was never bout the money though
The cash will come and go
But Now my pocket’s empty and my heart is feeling broke
And I’ll burn it all
Gasoline and matches
Our photographs in ashes
And I’ll blame it all
On what I thought magic
Through rose colored glasses
Anything I can I’ll throw it all away
But all that remains
Are the memories we made
All the memories we made
It’s my fault my own damn problem
I thought I was worth her loving
Caught off guard she second guessed it
Now I live to just forget it
And I’ll burn it all
Gasoline and matches
Our photographs in ashes
And I’ll blame it all
On what I thought was magic
Through rose colored glasses
Anything I can I’ll throw it all away
But all that remains
Are the memories we made
All the memories we made
