You told her you'd be home by ten
Played it off as overtime
But you were out to meet a friend
Cash in hand no questions asked
Just a promise to make amends
You called the bluff on a jackpot hand
And yet you stand as a pair again
In fear of detriment as the dealer calls
When you heard the sirens
You ran to hide
You caused the violence
Oh but you left him behind
As they kicked his head in
You watched from afar
In the midst of crisis
You add fuel to the fire
She told you again and again
Your escapades were dangerous
And that she needed you there and then
In nine months time you would change
And so you promised to make amends
You'd hang your gloves up
Throw the towel in
You swore that the fighting would end
And so you left him all alone
When you heard the sirens
You ran to hide
You caused the violence
Oh but you left him behind
As they kicked his head in
You watched from afar
In the midst of crisis
You add fuel to the fire
When you heard the sirens
You ran to hide
You caused the violence
Oh but you left him behind
As they kicked his head in
You watched from afar
In the midst of crisis
You add fuel to the fire
You add fuel to the fire
You add fuel to the fire
