Sirens

(album: Kicking Cars - 2014)

Well, I spend these nights chasing stars
Looking for you on the boulevards
Circling your house, just kicking cars
And waiting on sirens, waiting on sirens

It's been six months since I heard from you
Thought I'd drop the lock, you'd probably burn the proof
Skip town in a hurry, must've heard the news
Left me posing for the cameras and the boys in blue

Do you still have the scrapbook you made for me?
Sometimes I think I'm the pages that'll never be
You said, "We're cuffed to the past", you found the key
You're never long back, but as for me

I spend these nights chasing stars
Looking for you on the boulevards
Circling your house, just kicking cars
And waiting on sirens, waiting on sirens

I spent six months in that murder scene
Drawing chalk outlines to make sense of the screen
You said you had enough gas to burn the memories
As you lit the match, you swore you'd never leave

Now I spend these nights chasing stars
Looking for you on the boulevards
Circling your house, just kicking cars
And waiting on sirens

I spend these nights causing fires
Swerving on the bridges, falling apart
Circling your house, just kicking cars
And waiting on sirens, waiting on sirens

It's all in vain, it's all in vain
I dream of you as I curse your name
Switching the lanes, just hydroplaning
Off of the bridges, off of the bridges

Where are you now? Where are you now?
Do you spend your nights just talking too loud?
I pray you hear my voice in every siren sound
But you probably never even think about

How I spend these nights chasing stars
Looking for you on the boulevards
Circling your house, just kicking cars
And waiting, waiting

Now I spend these nights causing fires
Swerving on the bridges, falling apart
Circling your house, just kicking cars
And waiting on sirens, waiting on sirens

It's all in vain, it's all in vain
I dream of you as I curse your name
I'm just waiting, waiting

Where are you now? Where are you now?
Do you spend your nights just talking too loud?
I'm just waiting, waiting
Waiting on sirens, waiting on sirens

Just waiting, waiting
Waiting on sirens
