gemfyre: (Eep!)
[personal profile] gemfyre
Shower in the dark day
Clean sparks diving down
Cool in the waterway
Where the baptised drown
Naked in the cold sun
Breathing life like fire
I thought I was the only one
But that was just a lie

Cuz I heard it on the wind
And I saw it in the sky
And I thought it was the end
I thought it was the fourth of July

Pale in the flare light
The scared light cracks and disappears
And leaves the scorched ones here
And everywhere no-one cares the fire is spreading
No-one wants to speak about it
Down in the hole, Jesus tries to crack a smile
Beneath another shovel-load

Cuz I heard it on the wind
And I saw it in the sky
And I thought it was the end
I thought it was the fourth of July
July
July

Now I'm in control
Now I'm in the fallout
Once asleep but now I stand
And I still remember your sweet everything
Light a Roman candle and hold it in your hand

Cuz I heard it on the wind
And I saw it in the sky
And I thought it was the end
I thought it was the fourth of July
