Kerosene is a combustible hydrocarbon liquid. The name is derived from Greek keros (κηρός wax). The word "Kerosene" was registered as a trademark by Abraham Gesner in 1854, and for several years, only the North American Gas Light Company and the Downer Company (to which Gesner had granted the right) were allowed to call their lamp oil "Kerosene" in the United States of America. It eventually became a genericized trademark. It is sometimes spelled kerosine in scientific and industrial usage. The term "kerosene" is usual in much of Canada, the United States, Australia (where it can be referred to colloquially as "kero") and New Zealand.
Kerosene is usually called paraffin in the UK, Southeast Asia and South Africa. A more viscous paraffin oil is used as a laxative. A waxy solid extracted from petroleum is also called paraffin. Kerosene is widely used to power jet engines of aircraft (jet fuel) and some rocket engines, but is also commonly used as a cooking and lighting fuel and for fire toys such as poi. In parts of Asia, where the price of kerosene is subsidized, it fuels outboard motors on small fishing boats.

Shallow but inspired
Jumping into fires we set
Here we are
We're dumb enough to learn
Risking all we know to forget
So don't make me lead the way
Or make me say
It's real
The way
I feel
Chorus
'cause words burn like kerosene
Flickering
Then gone
Words burn like kerosene
Seldom seen again
Well damn the lies
I'm choking on the truth
Time is passing by
It's no excuse
Stale goodbyes
Oh really what's the use
To try and save what we long to lose
So don't make me lead the way
Or make me say
It's real
The way
I feel
Chorus
'cause words burn like kerosene
Flickering
Then gone
Words burn like kerosene
Seldom seen again
Words burn like kerosene
Flickering
Then gone
Words burn like kerosene
Seldom seen again
Sometimes you need to go astray
So throw caution to the wind
Sometimes it carries you away
Ohh please don't hate me when I say
Words burn like kerosene
Flickering
Then gone
Words burn like kerosene
Seldom seen again
Kerosene
Oh seldom seen
Ohh oh oh
