Starting Fires

by Bears In Trees

on I See Blue (2019)

I keep lighting fires and I keep punching walls
I keep holding my breath and I keep poking holes


OOOO

I keep smashing glasses and I keep falling down
I lay in the piece and I keep rolling around

OOOO

I can sleep on my sofa and you can sleep in my bed
I'll never feel whole but your as close as I'll get

OOOO

Well you can be the husband I can be your wife
We can pretend we can cope with real life
White picket fences and stable jobs
Three little faces and a couple of dogs
Yeah
You can be the husband I can be your wife
We can pretend we'll get over our strife
Having conversations we've never had before
You'll be drinking whisky as I walk out the door

I walk to the sea front
And I jump in fully clothed
And I keep wandering aimless
And, well, shit, I don't even know
