The Wildfire (If It Was True)

Well there's something in the way

She said I hate you cause you breathe

It's not the first time that I heard it

But this one is out of reach

I got my mind set on destruction

And if it will strike me hard

Will you remember me?

Oh it's in the way you set your life

On your alarm and hit the snoozie

You waste your life expectancy

You throw away your hopes and dreams

The night will never end, I'll stay forever

Well the dark will eat you up inside

So I smile and shed a tear

And said when will you go away

She said who cares

You're not entitled to ask those things today

Don't let the salt get in your eye

Don't let the ghost get in your heart

There were sweet memories in the corner of my mind

They were telling me to throw up

All the things that I want to hide

That we're having fun in the daytime

We'll chase the stars in the nighttime

And we'll take the sun in the morning

We just don't care if they see us fall

If it was true

Well today I bought the paper by myself

And cried 'cause everyone was happy

And on the streets well they were dancing

To some kind of Puerto Rican music that we would hate

But we would just move along to

So if you're driving in your car

And hear this on Radio 1

Well I know that it sounds silly

'Cause you don't have a car

But I just read it in a book

That these things happen in the fictive world

So I smile and shed a tear

And said when will you go away

She said who cares

You're not entitled to ask those things today

Don't let the salt get in your eye

Don't let the ghost get in your heart

There were sweet memories in the corner of my mind

They were telling me to throw up

All the things that I want to hide

That we're having fun in the daytime

We'll chase the stars in the nighttime

And we'll take the sun in the morning

We just don't care if they see us fall

Just don't care

Just don't care at all

If it was true

Well there is something in the air

That makes it difficult to live

The way we lived back in the days

When we had all the time to kill

It's just the wildfire burning

There's no way to put it out

Just a wildfire spreading

Through my days and through my nights

Don't ask no question

Don't ever tell no lie

I'm so tired of explaining

Every minor detail of my life

That we're having fun in the daytime

We'll chase the stars in the nighttime

And we'll catch the sun in the morning

We just don't care if they see us fall

That we're having fun in the daytime

We'll chase the stars in the nighttime

And we'll catch the sun in the morning

We just don't care if they see us fall

Just don't care

Just don't care at all

If it was true
