Elliott Smith — Roman Candle

[Verse 1] He played himself Didn't need me to give him hell He could be cool or cruel to you and me Knew we'd put up with anything [Chorus] I want to hurt him I want to give him pain I'm a roman candle My head is full of flames [Verse 2] I'm hallucinating, hallucinating I hear you cry Your tears are cheap Wet hot red swollen cheeks Fall asleep [Chorus] I want to hurt him I want to give him pain I'm a roman candle My head is full of flames [Bridge] I want to hurt him I want to hurt him I want to hurt him I want to give him pain [Outro] And make him feel this pretty burn
