I say goodnight how I want to say
And you don't dream anymore
Of cooking in a house on fire
But it's our fire, our fire, our fire, our fire
I got the number from the doctor's book (But you didn't want it)
To help us smother the flames of our nonstarter, nonstarter, nonstarter
The gods are fighting
The gods are fighting
And you play mean
Gods are fighting

I don't
I don't
I don't love you
I don't
I don't
I don't love you
I turned yesterday into stone
Got caught up, I guess, on your vote
I don't run away and feed it
Run away, it's heaven
I don't run away and feed it
Run away it's ever

I just want to
'Cause I'm in love
I just want to
'Cause I'm in love

We're just human
Get a little sleep
We're just human
The people wanna eat
The witch is anxious
She never really speaks
Thoughtless actions
Made every week
I could grow here
Get a little sleep
There's a problem
The people wanna eat

A whole new day
Out for the wake
And I forgot it all at once
I found my face
In a whole new frame
And it's prized like i think it should be
I'm the hit in your head
I'm all on your bed spread
But that's as close as you'll ever be
And it's true, I earn half
Of what the next dance gets
But i've got a heart of gold you'll pay to see

There's a neat trick
That I taught myself
To let go, let go
There's anneko, down the fire escape
But anyway, anyway
There's old eric
And he pays to stare
To let go, let go
To let go
I could never
Love you how you want
So let go
Let go
