Before the Fire Burns Out

She takes her dress off Lets it fall right to the floor Not for handstands We're not the kids we were before We were before now, oh no This small town, now Can you take me far from here? I've been waiting so long 'Cause if I stay I'll disappear I'll disappear now, oh no way Ill disappear now every day, yeah Before this fire burns out Before I burn this town Before my time runs out Tell me now just to be something (something, oh) The city's closer Almost that I feel its skin Don't you stop now Won't you please just let me in? Just let me in now, oh no Just let me in, oh no Before this fire burns out Before I burn this town Before my time runs out Tell me now just to be something, oh, oh yeah These walls now get closer, closer every day I stretch out my arms and I let them fade away These walls now get closer, closer every day I stretch out my arms and I let them fade away Fade away, they fade away They fade away, oh fade away, oh Before this fire burns out Before I burn this town Before my time runs out Oh, help me now just to be something (fade away, fade away, fade away, fade away)
