he hadn't been talking
walked out of the way
just sat there smoking

watching the flames

what's in the box?

you'd better talk.
she thought she knew him well
'til they had gone to see the fire


when the roof fell in
he lit up again

she thought she knew him some
'til they had gone to see the fire


friends with her brother
he started to call
now it's been two months

summer to fall

a bird on his finger

smoke in his clothes
tapping his ashes
like sending a code


You gotta tell me why
we're first to arrive

she thought she knew him well
'til they had gone to see the fire


when the roof fell in
he lit up again
she thought she knew him some

'til they had gone to see the fire

'til they had gone to see the fire

'til they had gone to see the fire
'til they had gone to see the fire
'til they had gone to see the fire
