This Lonely Fire

There's a streetlight faded for the day

There's a bombsite to be swept away

I will take the day off

I will take the day

Let the worry dissolve

Gonna celebrate

I will take the day off

I will take the day

I will take the day off

Because I've done everything you told me to

There's no need to act surprised

All my life I've done what I was meant to do

Never thought about asking why

And your own desire will let you know that it's true

There's a lonely fire replacing the old with the new

Replacing the old with the new

Replacing the old with the new

Replacing the old with the new

Replacing the old with the new

As the city fills with light and noise

While the whole world waits to be destroyed

I will take the day off

I will take the day

Let the worry dissolve

Gonna celebrate

I will take the day off

I will take the day

I will take the day off

Because I've done everything you told me to

There's no need to act surprised

All my life I've done what I was meant to do

Never thought about asking why

And your own desire will let you know that it's true

There's a lonely fire replacing the old with the new

Replacing the old with the new

Replacing the old with the new

Replacing the old with the new

Replacing the old with the new

I can't remember my own name

It's been forever, now I'm back again

And I cannot believe all the things we deny

Waiting for others to make it right

Even when it was clear the dream wasn't true

Wouldn't admit to the one thing left to do

Replacing the old with the new

Replacing the old with the new

Replacing the old with the new

Replacing the old with the new

There's a streetlight faded for the day

There's a bombsite to be swept away

Because I've done everything you told me to

There's no need to act surprised

All my life I've done what I was meant to do

Never thought about asking why

And your own desire will let you know that it's true

There's a lonely fire replacing the old with the new

Replacing the old with the new

Replacing the old with the new

Replacing the old with the new

Replacing the old with the new
