Firecracker

He says you're such a firecracker That's just 'cause he can't take the flame Now here comes another boy to dance in your fire It's like I'm watching through a two-way mirror pane You don't have to know what you want to know that you're wanted By every two-bit boy with a halfway decent smile It's how the fairy tales go, the boy gets the girl Then it's "happily ever after" for a while But I can see it, something ain't sitting right And I can feel it when you look in my eyes Is there something in my drink, or am I flying? He says you're such a firecracker That's just 'cause he can't take the flame And here comes another boy to dance in your fire It's like I'm watching through a two-way mirror pane I'll take another drag while he tries all his favorite lines Gonna ride this out, 'cause all I've got is time And later, when you spill your guts, I'll remember tomorrow But I'll fall asleep still wishing you were mine Is there something in these stolen glances? Waiting for a break from all this madness You never know where you're going, but I'll follow (If you want me to) He says you're such a firecracker That's just 'cause he can't take the flame And here comes another boy to dance in your fire It's like I'm watching through a two-way mirror pane We said it, and I'm proud of us I don't regret it, and my hopes ain't up I just can't shut up when my heart's beating this loud It's in the open, it's a big "now what?" But don't sweat it, 'cause I don't know what I want But I'd love you in all the ways a girl can love (But not a boy) He says you're such a firecracker That's just 'cause he can't take the flame Now here comes another boy to dance in your fire It's like I'm watching through a two-way mirror pane It's like I'm watching through a two-way mirror pane
