Things We Lost In The Fire

(album: Running With Scissors - 2014)

There's no smoke
Without reason
It's a sign there's something wrong
In my lungs
There's a poison
I've been breathing in too long

Cause there's no I,
No I in we
And there's no you,
No you in me
Cause I've been burned way beyond the third degree

Cause your words are like gasoline
You pour on the fire
And the bridges you burned
Led to our dreams
It's just another thing that we lost

When the spark turned into a flame
And the flames grew much higher
And my hope, faith and every last desire
It's just another thing that we lost in the fire

Ashes fall
Just like snowflakes
That are warm against my skin
You say that we
Could re-build this
Wouldn't know where to begin

Cause there's no snow
And there's no rain
To hide my tears
To douse these flames
Cause I've been burned way beyond the third degree

Cause your words are like gasoline
You pour on the fire
And the bridges you burned
Led to our dreams
It's just another thing that we lost

When the spark turned into a flame
And the flames grew much higher
And my hope, faith and every last desire
It's just another thing that we lost in the fire
Just another thing that we lost

Chasing shadows
Going nowhere
Going nowhere
Round in circles
Nothing left, nothing left to say

When the spark turned into a flame
And the flames grew much higher
And my hope, faith and every last desire
It's just another thing that we lost in the fire
Just another thing that we lost in the fire
Just another thing that we lost
