Chemical Fires

(album: Dreamhouse - 2010)

Under such disappointing times, we distract ourselves
Showing off our petty chemical fires, they glow so wrong

So you follow your dreams
Or at least the dreams you've settled for
But if you followed your dreams, oh

I want the answer, I want the cure for dying alone
I thought that I was meant to be a hero
Now they'll all see how much I've grown

Sing loud and scream and yell
And raise your fists and cause an avalanche
If you squeeze him hard enough
God might show the way
But if you just grow up
You'll see that there's little
In this world worth screaming for
So fall in love and lie down

So you follow your dreams
Or at least the dreams you've settled for
But if you followed your dreams, oh

I want the answer, I want the cure for dying alone
I thought that I was meant to be a hero
Now they'll all see how much I've grown
I want the answer, I want the cure for dying alone
I thought that I was meant to be a hero
Now they'll all see how much I've grown

Under such disappointing times, we distract ourselves
Showing off our petty chemical fires, they glow so wrong
Under such disappointing times, we distract ourselves
Showing off our petty chemical fires, they glow so wrong

I want the answer, I want the cure for dying alone
I thought that I was meant to be a hero
Now they'll all see how much I've grown
