Birthdays on Video

There's something burning the air

And all our curtains from more than half a decade ago

Are engulfed in red, I'm out of bed in two

I catch you staring again

With your brother's guitar close to your chest

Getting too glassy-eyed to say goodbye, but we gotta go soon

I know we're both so upset

And it's brutal circumstance

Oh, I know, I know, I know, I know, I, I

Take the dogs and go

Am I talking irrational

While we only got surface burns and birthdays on video

Leave the books and run

You know we can't save everyone

Ooh, if anybody asks, we can say that we had our fun

Telepathic at dawn

And all the other magnificent things we saw

Make their way into the shapes of plumes

If I stare too long, too long, tonight

Don't be upset

It's just brutal circumstance

Oh, I know, I know, I know, I know, I, I

Take the dogs and go

Am I talking irrational

While we only got surface burns and birthdays on video

Leave the books and run

You know we can't save everyone

Ooh, if anybody asks, we can say that we had our fun
