"Lighting Matches" lyrics
"Lighting Matches"
I've had a long day, I've been walking on
Hands in pockets, Wishing on stars I can't see
I watch you city dreamers, left hometown believers
Looking down at the ground like me
We're all lonely people, lonely people, alone
Going in circles, going wherever the wind blows and it blows
But I'm lighting matches
Making a shelter for a flame so fire catches
Stay in the dark another day (are we alone?)
Will it all get better (are we alone?)
Or are we lost together
Nah-nana-nah-nah-nana-nah
Are we lost together
Nah-nana-nah-nah-nana-nah
Are we lost together
So I paint my eyes on, let conversation lie on
It feels like I've no room for time
Tell me which piece of you is missing
We all got past, it exists
We're all lonely people, lonely people, alone
Going in circles, going wherever the wind blows and it blows
But I'm lighting matches
Making a shelter for a flame so fire catches
Stay in the dark another day (are we alone?)
Will it all get better (are we alone?)
Or are we lost together
Nah-nana-nah-nah-nana-nah
Are we lost together
Nah-nana-nah-nah-nana-nah
Are we lost together
And I-I-I-I won't stand back
And I-I-I-I won't let it burn down
Gonna make this puzzle with a piece that doesn't fit
There must be something more to this
So I'm lighting matches
Making a shelter for a flame so fire catches
Stay in the dark another day (are we alone?)
Will it all get better (are we alone?)
Or are we lost together
Nah-nana-nah-nah-nana-nah
Are we lost together
Nah-nana-nah-nah-nana-nah
Are we lost together

The Academic - "Bear Claws" I know it's a little old-fashioned
Holding hands, now start your romancin'
Show me all your flaws
Show me your bear claws
Go rip your heart out tonight
You don't have to be cool to make me shiver...
George Ezra - "Hold My Girl" I've been waiting for you
To come around and tell me the truth
'Bout everything that you're going through
My girl you've got nothing to lose
Cold nights
And the Sunday mornings
On your way and out...
Grace Carter - "Why Her Not Me" I feel your ghost, smell you all over my clothes
Oh, all your smoke's stuck in me longer then you did
I had my doubts, I had to check it all out
And now I see that you've run back when I thought...
Rhys Lewis - "The Sun Will Rise" When life leaves you hopeless
Lying alone with
A heart full of questions
That haven't got answers
Sometimes the darkness can feel like it's endless
But as lost as the light seem the sun will rise...
Gerry Cinnamon - "Ghost" Turn into a ghost if you wanna disappear
Take back all the words you whispered in my ear
Don't worry about me, I'll be fine
Let memories fade into your wicked mind
Your words still echo in my bones...
