Well, there was seven years between us   Seems that all my friends were right   That we can't survive on your bedroom eyes   And a Spanish guitar      When we started this it was paradise   Not just Bethnal Green   And it's just not right this waiting game   Making a cuckold of me      I can be as cruel as you   Fighting fire with firewood   I can be as cruel as you   Fighting lies with lies   (If you need time)      And it's just not like me to lash out   But enough is enough   Tell me what the others can do   That I can't      Translucent and sun-bleached skin, yeah   When did you get so L.A.?   How can you desert me after   What we've been through?      Stuck on a dreamland   Somewhere is better   You'll be the one missing out      I can be as cruel as you   Fighting fire with firewood   I can be as cruel as you   Fighting lies with lies   (If you need time)      I can be as cruel as you   Fighting fire with firewood   (If you need time)   I can be as cruel as you   Fighting lies with lies      If you need time, time, time   Time, time, time      I can be as cruel as you   Fighting fire with firewood   I can be as cruel as you   Fighting lies with lies   (If you need time)      I can be as cruel as you   Fighting fire with firewood   (If you need time)   I can be as cruel as you   Fighting lies with lies      I can be as cruel as you   Fighting fire with firewood   I can be as cruel as you   Fighting lies with lies      Fighting lies with lies, with lies, with lies   Fire with, fire, fire with, firewood, wood
