Dirt For a Dying Sun

it's a cold night in winter
you said you wanted to stay
and you don't wanna talk
we could lay here or fuck
but you ain't got nothing to say
it's all been given away
the big ball's down
and it's raining champagne
people are crowding the street
i tried to get out of this city by now
but it's just got a hold on me
and i ain't gonna get free

summer nights and fireflies
make it easy to love someone
easy to love someone
city lights and tall high-rise
have you heard what we all become?
dirt for a dying sun

it's first day of the new year
and we woke up feeling like hell
breakfast is beer, some cigarettes, some tears
and the morning after pill
someday it's gonna get real
guess i might see you later on
if you're ever out on this side of town
cus i never leave and i don't really believe
i wouldn't just let you down
if i ever came around

falling apart in real time
make it easy to love someone
easy to love someone
windy seas and ravens' eyes
tell me where i come from
halfway to nowhere
even halfway to nowhere's gone

heard you're moving west
and you sold all your copper
your necklace, your mother's rings
i wish you the best and if you'd
come by tomorrow i'd
give bout anything
to be underneath your wing
one more time again
lay me down easy
lay me down like rain
so i can see your dancing colors
and feel the crashing waves
with the heartbeat of the day
with the heartbeat of the day
it's the damage done
it's the prodigal son
it's the pieces we wanted to hide
just two blocks down
there's a factory cloud that's
burning a hole in the sky
in the heartbeat of the night
in the heartbeat of the night

summer nights and fireflies
make it easy to love someone
easy to love someone
city lights and tall high-rise
have you heard what we all become?
dirt for a dying sun
dirt for a dying sun
dirt for a dying sun
dirt for a dying sun
dirt for a dying sun
