Fireworks
When you picked me up from the airport, I fell asleep
The sound of the car was driving me insane
And I was not ready to be afraid of the ocean
But you took me sailing anyway
On the fourth of july, when the sky was loud and angry
"It's now or never," you'd always say
Cause you've been trying to catch this thing for ten years already
I'm only nine, I want to go home
You've been trying to catch this thing for ten years already
I don't wanna die, I wanna go home
The fireworks woke him up, and he wasn't happy
He was so much bigger than our little boat
And he must have had a hundred scars from people just like me
I think we probably should have left him alone
Cause was crying smoke, he was breathing fire and brimstone
And I turned to tell you what you already know
You've been trying to catch this thing for ten years already
I'm only nine, I want to go home
You've been trying to catch this thing for ten years already
I don't wanna die for this, I wanna go home
The sound of the car was driving me insane
And I was not ready to be afraid of the ocean
But you took me sailing anyway
On the fourth of july, when the sky was loud and angry
"It's now or never," you'd always say
Cause you've been trying to catch this thing for ten years already
I'm only nine, I want to go home
You've been trying to catch this thing for ten years already
I don't wanna die, I wanna go home
The fireworks woke him up, and he wasn't happy
He was so much bigger than our little boat
And he must have had a hundred scars from people just like me
I think we probably should have left him alone
Cause was crying smoke, he was breathing fire and brimstone
And I turned to tell you what you already know
You've been trying to catch this thing for ten years already
I'm only nine, I want to go home
You've been trying to catch this thing for ten years already
I don't wanna die for this, I wanna go home
