Too Much, Too Much

"Too Hot, Too Bright"

I never asked for you
I only knew your name
When I fell into you
I started the game

I gave up too much, too fast
You couldn't control your compulsions
Together, inside we crashed
We were too close to clear the explosion

You never wanted me
You only wanted the fame
My blind eyes didn't see
We're just pawns in a game

I gave up too much, too fast
You couldn't control your compulsions
Together, inside we crashed
We were too close to clear the explosion

Love could have been ours, you know
But the flame was too hot, too bright
We blew it out before it could grow
The roots of our hearts too fragile and light

The flame was too hot, too bright
It was all too much, too much
Muscles too weak to fight
It was all too much, too much
