Lyrics
There's a special place here for you that's reserved in hell
There's a reserved place in hell for you, implying wrongdoing or evil actions.
And you know that I've adored you since the day that you fell

But it's like
Suggests a comparison or contrast is forthcoming.

Flames that burn lookin in your eyes
Implies intense emotions or turmoil seen in the eyes of the individual.
And I know
Transition or acknowledgment of understanding the situation.
That there's a key here by the door that you forgot when you left

Encouraging the individual to express their thoughts or emotions openly.
Cuz it's like

But I know

That I was about to break
Feeling close to a breaking point due to the situation.
Was it more than I could take
Questioning whether the situation was too much to handle.
All those words we never got to say

But you read between the lines
Recognizing hidden meanings or intentions.
And lit a spark inside

Foreseeing the potential downfall if the truth is acknowledged.
What's the point in the truth if it's laced with lies
