Fires – Lyrics

Now that my luggage is all packed

I wonder if it’s half full or half empty

Now I’ve lost count of the people

Who saved my life, I don’t know

Why I did, half the things I did

And if we tend it

Our little house fire

Could burn this entire city

Wouldn’t it be great

And in the ashes

We’ll search for hidden meaning

Hoping we don’t find nothing 

That proves either of us right

Now that my bottles are empty

I wonder if I can still be a runaway

Now I’ve got time to build things

Will I get that feeling that you get

When you build something from scratch

And if we tend it

Our little house fire

Could burn this entire city

Wouldn’t it be great

And in the ashes

We’ll search for hidden meaning

Hoping we don’t find nothing 

That proves either of us right
