Lighter Burns

Fuck
What's a song
Meant to be?
I could write you poetry
I could sing you poems
Paint you places you've never seen
Kids
What's a kid?
Am I too old to be a kid?
Oh I could be a kid for you
If you wanted me to

And I know that you'd sing with me
Whether it's incoherent or poetry
I know that we'd jump together
In the pit below the sunset
I know that you'd dance for me
Let me play you again and again
Like a music box ballerina
Just to watch you spin

Hold up your lighters
Let the sky burn
Our bodies and our bibles
The scrapes left on our knees
We all carry
The very same sin
Souls that inhabit
A human skin

Rose
What's a rose
Without it's thorns
I'm reduced to nothing
Vulnerable so
Cut me open
Slice me through my stem right to my
Core
Deep inside
Where I hide
From the outside screaming
Let's go home
And watch a movie
Put your cigarette out
On my wall

And I know that you'd scream with me
Whether it's shitty lyrics
Or a melody
I know that we'd jump together
In the pit just as the sun sets
I know that you'd dance for me
Let me play you again and again
Like my very own court jester
Just to watch you spin

Hold up your lighters
Let the sky burn
Our bodies and our bibles
The scrapes left on our knees
We all carry
The very same sin
Souls that inhabit
A human skin

Brandy breath
On cigarettes
You smell just like the movies
Put your hand in my hand
Honey
On your shoulders so I can see
The lights and the adrenaline
Pulsing through my veins
There's something in the air
My dear
I bet that we look crazy

Hold up your lighters
Let the sky burn
Our bodies and our bibles
The scrapes left on our knees
We all carry
The very same sin
Souls that inhabit
A human skin
