The Night Changes - Fire and the Thud Lyrics




You showed me my tomorrow
Beside a box of matches
A welcome threatening stir

My hopes of being stolen
Might just ring true
Depends who you'd prefer

If it's true you're gonna run away
Tell me where, I'll meet you there

Am I snapping the excitement
If I pack away the laughter
And tell you how it feels

And does burden come to meet you
If I've questions of the feature
That rolls on your dream real

The day after you stole my heart
Everything I touched told me it would be better shared with you
With you

And now you're hiding in my sleep
And this book reveals you're face
And you're splashing in my eyelids
And the concentration continually breaks

I did request the mark you cast
Didn't heal as fast
I hear your voice in silences
Will the teasing of the fire be followed by the thud?

In the jostling crowd
You're not allowed to tell the truth
And the photo booth is a liar
And there's a sharpened explanation
But there's no screaming reason to enquire

I'd like to poke them in their prying eyes
With things they'd never see if it smacked them in their temples
