American Aquarium - Wildfire Lyrics




I've been on my own
As long as I remember
An ornery stretch of hardwood content to wait his turn
Then you fluttered by
A brightly burning ember
You set my world on fire babe, sat back and watched it burn

A single spark on the summer plains
Ignites the dark into a field of dancing flames
We gave in to the simplest of desire
And watched that spark turn to wildfire

Then the sky busted open
Like the book of Revelations
The smell of Bulleit Rye and brimstone filled the August air
Never meant for this to happen
Complete and utter devastation
A flame that burns this bright is a flame that don't burn long

So here I am standing
On the site of something tragic
Cooled ash and scourged earth is all that we've left to show
And if there's one thing I've learned
There's a part of death that's magic
Destroying something to make way for something else to grow
