"Fireworks" lyrics

"Fireworks"

All these love songs
Love songs might be no good for me
Keep on selling the dream
I wonder how long
How long will I wait to be happy
All my friends ask me

When am I gonna be settled down
Buy a house
Stay in town?
Like it's easy, like people on TV
I don't wanna just settle now
Put my fire underground
Just cause it's easy
Honey believe me

I wish I could just flip a switch
And just accept your kind of muted bliss
Cause I don't wanna be holding out forever
What if my type is just fireworks
An act of faith even though it hurts to shut that door
Am I holding out forever

What if I am wrong
Wrong to think there's more to this story
My heart pounds and they know me
Am I headstrong
Or foolish every night waiting for lightning to strike
When you've got blue skies

I wish I could just flip a switch
And just accept your kind of muted bliss
Cause I don't wanna be holding out forever
What if my type is just fireworks
An act of faith even though it hurts to shut that door
Am I holding out forever
Am I holding out forever

When am I gonna be settled down
Buy a house
Stay in town?
Like it's easy, like people on TV
I don't wanna just settle now
Put my fire underground
Just cause it's easy
Honey believe me

I wish I could just flip a switch
And just accept your kind of muted bliss
Cause I don't wanna be holding out forever
What if my type is just fireworks
An act of faith even though it hurts to shut that door
Am I holding out forever
Am I holding out forever
