The fire that this town can see

Is me alight in effigy

I suppose baby don't want me around

She threw my stuff into a pit

And laughed aloud as I dove after it

I suppose baby don't want me around



Is this the place you want to be?

Out of the woods

Out of control

And is it really only me

Who never gets here with you



She changed the number, changed the lock

A rubber door in case I knock

I suppose baby don't want me around



Is this the place you want to be?

Out of the woods

Out of control

And is it really only me

Who never gets here with you



Looking up your balcony

By the light of the moon I will be

I suppose baby don't want me around



The stars above they are not real

They are the sparks from smitten steel

I propose forging is making that sound

Baby don't want me around

Baby don't want me 

I suppose my baby don't want me around
