Fireworks - Run, Brother, Run lyrics

rate me

(Verse)

The television turns mouths and words

Don't line up like it should

You're hard concrete, what I'm stuck on

The blood stain in there and where it came from

Coffee cups collect at the side of my bed

Red stains push through the places I've burned

I tied em together with a string

The pattern just tells me, "go to sleep", I should go to sleep

(Chorus)

I'm getting used to my skin but it doesn't fit right

I share my name with a stranger all my life

And I feel it all, Carolina in my blood

Run, brother, run!

(Verse)

I was twenty-five when my dad died

My arm was felt weak, my heart grew tired

And every girl I tried to kiss

Gives that look you did so I choose to miss

I'm the greatest book read to the end

In those last lines you'll find my friends

Like flies on tape, I keep them close

We may look dead, but move our soul

(Chorus)

I'm getting used to my skin but it doesn't fit right

I share my name with a stranger all my life

And I feel it all, Carolina in my blood

Run, brother, run!

(Outro)

I keep your things in my garage

I won't drive away

I feel it all, Carolina in my blood

Run, brother, run!

Uh uh uh
