Swan Matches

I remember hours scraped away

hospital blue paint off the wall

like it would take forever

Lighting those swan matches to see

just how long they'll take to burn out

like they could burn forever

How we envied all those actors lives

how that cricket talked all night

like he could talk forever

Then I thought I'd heard you in the hall

turns out that it wasn't you at all

I guess you had to be there

And I remember how fast we ran

I remember how fast we ran

We flew over fences

We dodged all the moving cars

and the dry Arizona faces

the dry Arizona faces

And how we stayed awake all night long

How we stayed awake all night long

We flew over fences

We dodged all the moving cars

and the dry Arizona faces

the dry Arizona faces
