How am I still in the dark when the world is on fire |
|
Lit by the passing of sparks |
|
I crouch low in my shadow |
|
When the world is on fire |
|
How am I still in the dark |
|
A puppet, a toy |
|
I am safe in my shadow |
|
Backlit by the passing of sparks |
|
I wake up from a media blackout |
|
Feed my child and we head outside |
|
Here be monsters -- |
|
How do I tell her about them |
|
You know for now |
|
I'll just let that one slide |
|
I want in on |
|
Lucinda's sweet old world |
|
If it's there |
|
I swear to god there are days that |
|
Song's what gets me out of bed |
|
The world is on fire |
|
So how am |
|
I still in the dark |
|
I see you there too |
|
You're low in your shadow |
|
But lit by the passing of sparks |
|
I wake up from a deep winter blackout |
|
And I see all the summer creeps crawling out |
|
I swear to god there are days |
|
That thought's what sends me back to bed |
|
The world |
|
I son fire |
|
So how am |
|
I still in the dark |
|
Out of this madness is something unravelling |
|
How am I so in the dark |
|
Why am I so in the dark |
|
How am I so in the dark |
|
When the world is on fire |
|
This is not the last time |
|
That I'm coming round again |
|
I'm still so pissed at you all |
|
This is not the last time |
|
That I'm coming round again |
