When we were burning 

These stained walls would swell with passion 

Our sweat warped the wooden floorboards 

You'd kick out the nightlight 

And let the moon bleed through the window 

Draping over naked bodies 



We're killing time 

Trying to love 

What we can't find 

But who does? 

A drier heat than we know blistered me badly 

We've all been burning out 



I'll have a Gibson 

My throat is dry from screaming blindly 

At the wishing stars that wrecked me 

They kinged me naive 

Now I keep the nightlight on and watch the sweat drip from the ceiling 



These summer nights 

The streetlights burst flames 

They screech too bright 

They scream blind 

A drier heat than we know blistered me badly 

We've all been burning out 



A drier heat than we know blistered me badly 

We've all been burning... out 



Warp the wooden floor 

Kick out the light, kick off the bedsheets, and let the moon bleed in 

Warp the wooden floor 

Kick out the light, kick off the bedsheets, and let the moon bleed in
