Lyrics

I lit a fire on the corner of my street last night.
I told my neighbors that it was some other guy.
Silently crept out of town on the morning train.
Bought a car, burned my passport and changed my name.
I drove for hours, no exit was feeling right.
I looked through windows, at car parks with vacant lights.
But none were places that I chose to dye my hair,
Shave my face, lose the accent, and disappear.
Don’t leave me in the cold
I don’t want another home.
You told me not to leave
While you grabbed me by the sleeve.
A hunk of money was under the creaky boards.
They said the banks would be better but I’m not sure.
My room and yours filled with clothing we used to have.
A broken bookcase with pictures of mom and dad.
I wrote a letter or two and I hung my coat.
Swept the dust off our table and had a smoke.
I started thinking I heard you out on the porch.
So as the days passed I slept with an open door.
Don’t leave me in the cold
I don’t want another home.
You told me not to leave
While you grabbed me by the sleeve.
I saw a car in the driveway and I got scared.
An open window was all that I left you there.
And every memory I drowned in kerosine.
Lit a match, burned my passport and changed my name.
