lyrics

Put out the fires. Here they come.
You can’t wait out the times with no time to waste.
The cruel ones and their drastic means
To drown out the incredible lengths of the meek,
They're Itching to gain while you’re fast asleep.

But I got all my baby’s stories in a bottle of perfume she keeps by the bed.
And all my memories standing in rows, and they multiply till I can’t see the
One that came long before they invented me.

Put out the fires here we come.
You can’t wait out your lives with no life to waste.
The cool ones and their manic means
To drown out the sun, the wine, and the seas –
The islands they hop in a virtual leap.
