"Island" lyrics

"Island"

You were standing outside smoking, waiting for a cab
And I was leaning in the hallway, aching for a drag
You are never easy to explain
And I'll admit that I am just the same

I could be a loner or a liar
And we could set this goddamn world on fire
An island I remain
An island I remain

You could take the light within me and never shut it off
Here we stand, a line between that we can never cross
I shouldn't be a fool here anymore
But you are never easy to ignore

I could be a loner or a liar
And we could set this goddamn world on fire
An island I remain
An island I remain
An island I remain

I could be a loner or a liar
And we could set this goddamn world on fire
An island I remain
An island I remain
An island I remain

And I could be a loner or a liar
And we could set this goddamn world on fire
An island I remain
An island I remain
An i...island I remain
