Fire and the Thud

[Intro]

(Woo, woo)

(Woo, woo)

[Verse 1]

You showed me my tomorrow beside a box of matches

A welcomed threatening stir

My hopes of being stolen might just ring true

Depends who you prefer

If it's true you're gonna run away

Tell me where, I'll meet you there

[Verse 2]

Am I snapping the excitement

If I pack away the laughter and tell you how it feels?

And does burden come to meet ya

If I've questions of the feature that rolls on your dream reel?

The day after you stole my heart everything I touched

Told me it would be better shared with you, with you

[Bridge]

And now you're hiding in my soup

And this book reveals your face

And you're splashing in my eyelids

As the concentration continually breaks

I did request the mark you cast

Didn't heal as fast

I hear your voice in silences

Will the teasing of the fire be followed by the thud?

[Outro]

In the jostling crowd, you're not allowed to tell the truth

And the photo booth's a liar (Liar)

And there's a sharpened explanation

But there's no screaming reason to inquire (Liar)

I'd like to poke them in their prying eyes with things

They'd never see if it smacked them in their temples
