Artificial Fire Lyrics

Found the treasure at last

We have to count backwards

You start at the end

'Til we find what we're after

There are two kinds of men

He can never be true

But am I just like him

Am I unfaithful too

I was drawing a map

But I couldn't have known

Take a right, take a left

You'll know when you get there

The puzzle will fit late one night in Montreal

Where there's clothes on the floor

And his artificial fire

Is there anybody counting

This mathematical equation

Could there be another answer

Could I change his mind

Or could he change mine

Why can't there be one

He tried to explain

In the dark I would laugh

And we would talk and get naked

Reading my map late one night in Montreal

I found the treasure at least

It was artificial fire

Is there anybody counting

This mathematical equation

Could there be another answer

Could he change my mind

Or could I change his mind

It was new, it was old

From the start it was both

And a year nearly passed

And one night in Montreal

I'm killer at heart

And I wanted to feel

So I laid out my trap

With my artificial fire
