Elliot Smith — Roman Candle lyrics

He played himself
Didn't need me to give him help
He could be cool, cruel to you and me
Knew we'd put up with anything
I wanna hurt him
I wanna give him pain
I'm a Roman candle
My head is full of flames
I'm hallucinating, hallucinating
I hear you cry
Your tears, cheap
Wet hot red swollen cheeks
Fall asleep
I wanna hurt him
I wanna give him pain
I'm a Roman candle
My head is full of flames
I wanna hurt him
I wanna hurt him
I wanna hurt him
I wanna give him pain

He can feel this pretty burn
