Lyrics
Fire Engine
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Let me take you to the empty place in my fire engine
Let me take you to the empty place in my fire engine
It can drive you out of your mind
Climb the ladder of your own design in my fire engine.
Don't tell it to go slow or stop
You're got to work it right up to the top
A piercing bolt of neon red
Explodes on fire inside your head
Let me take you to the empty place on my fire engine
Let me take you to the empty place in my fire engine
Blow it in rhythms making you
Round in the corner you can feel the ring on my fire engine
Close your eyes and you will raise
Your image you no longer taste
A fiery flood engulfs your brain
And drowns your partner (?)
Let me take you to the empty place on my fire engine
Let me take you to the empty place on my fire engine
It can drive you out of your mind
Climb the ladder of your own design in my fire engine.
