lyrics

You could say it's not the same, but don't do that
The only difference was a mother and a coonskin cap
Call it lies or call it lame, just call me back
I'm not a fire, I'm just a flame on a midnight raft
And all I needed was an easterly to hold me back
Or some climate change denier to tear in half

And oh no, there's no hope of letting go
And it's not mean, it's just enough for you's not enough for me
For all of the flames that fell out of the aeroplane just to freeze
And every moment of silence is another moment of violence inside of me

Now it's only fair that you enjoy
A coronation of the characters that I employed
To get inside and live alone
It's a lonely little town on a torn up map
Making confetti of the paradise that I once had
I was alone, I was alive

And oh no, there's no hope of letting go
For all of the flames that fell out of the aeroplane just to freeze
And every moment of silence is another moment of violence inside of me

Holding it together on a Saturday night
Hold me like a tether from the wings of your kite
'Cause I know this might not make it home
But you better make it over to me
And don't you feel lucky when your head's feeling light?
Tiptoeing 'round each other for the rest of our lives
'Cause I know that I'm your little baby and you're my little clementine

And every moment of silence is another moment of violence inside of me
