[Verse 1]
I light my wick in bondage
Laying in the pit I stay haunted
The perfect fix: the essence
Feel wax drip, momentary heaven

[Refrain 1]
I'm slipping through the cracks
So far down the rabbit hole
Another lantern comes crashing down

[Chorus]
Strike a match
Cover me with kerosene
Playing with fire
I become the effigy
(I become the effigy)
(I become the effigy)

[Verse 2]
Suspended animation
Secret acts of desecration
Recursive immolation
Auto-erotic decapitation

[Refrain 2]
Scratching my skin until I bleed
A tormenting itch that never leaves
Burn the temple down and I'll be free
[Chorus]
Strike a match
Cover me with kerosene
Playing with fire
I become the effigy
(I become the effigy)
(I become the effigy)

[Outro]
I can hear the Devil speak
Why don't you run away with me?
I can hear the Devil speak
Why don't you run away with me?
I can hear the Devil speak
Why don't you run away with m-m-m?
I can hear the Dev-De-De-De-Dev-Dev-
Why don't you run away wi- me?
I can hear the Devil speak
Why don't you run away with me?
I can hear the Devil speak
Why don't you run away with me?
Kaeps liveD eht raeh nac I
Why don't you run away with me?
I-I-I can hear the Devil speak
Why don't you run away with me?
I can hear the De-e-e-s-s-s-
Why don't you run away with me?
I can hear the Devil speak
