He was lost in a kerosene dream
Fuelled by the urge inside
Never was one to abide
Always been told not to play with fire

Hypnotized by the burning flame
It all started way back when
When the neighbor's house burnt down
No one knew about his love affair
And in that flame his love was found

Now time went on like it always does
Now he's gone with out a prayer

Love it was it's a twisted game
Today he burnt like you do in hell

Today he learnt his lesson well
In twisted games we should never play
I wish this tale could end another way

Now I'll tell you another tale
About a boy who loved his gun
His 45 was his one best friend

Twisted games that can't be won
Another day or so they thought
With a little boy who loved his gun
No one knew what was to come
This little town will never be the same
Today he learnt his lesson well

Today he burnt his one last shell

I wish this tale could end another way
Twisted games we should never play
