letra de book of matches - seth glier
one, two, three…
caught my breath like a submarine
smelled the fear and kerosene
everybody keeps their life too clean
so i’m gonna watch it burn
folks are fun and people real pretty
it’s hard to find love in paradise city
the name, the shame, the pride, and pity
well i’m gonna watch it turn
fair street blazing
faces look like chrome
fourteen sleepy heads
watch the burning of their homes
and children crying
kicking down the latches
i can hear my heart
right before the fire catches
[chorus]
light it up, let it go
light up everything we think we know
burn it down, all attachments
burn right through the safety catches
we are all book of matches waiting to be turned
watch the fire take control
prayed for rain, for the roof to hold
the o’brians brought us coats for the cold in december
i saw my dad weep as the walls gave away
we thought about the sofa and the jar of money he had saved
the kitchen table and all the love he left behind
and then he looked at mom and smiled
said they’ll be with me the whole time
[chorus]
so light it up, let it go
light up everything we think we know
burn it down, all attachments
burn right through the safety catches
we are all book of matches waiting to be turned
[chorus]
light it up, let it go
light up everything we think we know
burn it down, all attachments
burn right through the safety catches
we are all book of matches waiting to be turned
waiting to be turned
