Housefires

by Bonesetters

My heart is a house fire and a threat to set the block alight
It’s moving toward the border lines and picking up steam tonight
I’m scorching all the trees and hopping the roofs of the buildings
In the middle of the pyre white light, white light, white light

It’s all right to be consumed sometimes, it’s all right
If we go down by the waters edge
We could float if we just drop

I’m not looking for a savior I’m just waiting on a witness
If you knew me five years ago you know that I’ve grown strange
Would you recognize me, would I even know who you are, dear? 
If not, would you go to the stars trying to forget my name?

It’s all right to be lost sometimes, it’s all right
If you go, the stars will wrap you so tightly
When I’m forgot, you will just drop

It’s all right to lose your mind, it’s all right
If we go down by the waters edge
We could float if we just drop
