white fire
Everything is tragic It all just falls apart But when I look into your eyes It pieces up my heart If I only had an answer To put it all to bed I wish sometimes I could take back Every word I've said I walk back in the night alone Got caught up in my song Forgot where I was sleeping None of the lights were on I heard my mother thinking me right back into my birth I laughed so loud inside myself it all began to hurt So I turned on a picture show I disappeared the lines As memories came flooding in The tears blew out my eyes I see an elevator A moment I am above I look for you or someone Who can still remind me of The tight grip and the sun lick And the calm way of all things summer When it's all here And it's all new And you're not hungover Fierce and light and young Fierce and light and young When you don't know that you're wrong Or just how wrong you are My feet are always heavy As I head toward the door I thought we'd leave this for ourselves a hundred times before But I guess we're always leaving even when we look the same and it eases me somehow to know that even this will change If you've still got some light in you then go before it's gone Burn your fire for no witness it's the only way it's done Fierce and light and young Fierce and light and young Hit the ground and run Hit the ground and run
