about

A smokey semi-acoustic rock ballad from Kelvin Killmon and Alexander. Gossip spreads like wildfire in a small town - you had better be ready for the consequences.

lyrics

Wrapped around her finger was a little piece of coal that had been pressed into a diamond by the weight of the world. Every word she whispered twisted like smoke. A man like me should've turned and ran before she even spoke...

'Cause it starts with a spark on the tip of her tongue. You can claim that the flames weren't meant to hurt no one...

We'd hide from the street lights where we thought no one would catch us, but we were careless - just two kids playing with matches. I'd kissed her all night when the pastor's daughter caught us. We didn't think twice that the moment that she saw it could start with a spark on the tip of her tongue. You can claim that the flames weren't meant to hurt no one...

But we started a wildfire in a place word gets around.

We started a wildfire that swept right through this town.

Not looking for trouble, but trouble's what we found...

When we started a wildfire that burned it to the ground.

A rumor's like an ember that's carried on the wind; before we knew it everyone had heard. It smoldered on the lips of everyone who listened in, cause infidelity is just a four letter word when it starts with a spark on the tip of her tongue. You can claim that the flames weren't meant to hurt no one...

But we started a wildfire in a place word gets around.

We started a wildfire that swept right through this town.

Not looking for no trouble, but trouble's what we found...

When we started a wildfire that burned it to the ground.

Sooner or later she'll go back to him, and leave me lower than the ashes on the ground. But I hope that when they kiss he tastes the brimstone on her lips that always tells a story 'bout how -

We started a wildfire in a place word gets around.

We started a wildfire that swept right through this town.

Not looking for trouble, but trouble's what we found...

When we started a wildfire that burned it to the ground.
