Watch firecrackers without asking why
The stars don't take the colours to use in the sky
Red ones and yellow and blue and hot white
Blaze from a distance painting a picture tonight
The things that burn also give you fire
They keep you pushing on but do not prove yourself a liar
Please I can't take it when you try to fake it
You're running out of time
We're running out of time
Just say what's on your mind
I promise to take it fine
Just say it cuz you mean it and the lines will come out fine
But when you're tripping on words and I have to hear from a bird
What you really meant when you tried making up sense
Watch firecrackers without asking why
The stars don't take the colours to use in the sky
Red ones and yellow and blue and hot white
Blaze from a distance painting a picture tonight
We'll make our own myths connecting dots in the night
Sketch the story as you see it and the lines will come out fine
Some days you see red but I know you're true blue
Even when you're not yourself know that I still see you
Just say it as you mean it and I'll try to understand
Read between the lines with an intuitive hand
That builds a little picture and carves out this smile
That could light up our years for all of our while
There's a little blue light I can see it in your eyes
Blue seeps through the cracks in your voice when they're dry
Watch firecrackers without asking why
The stars don't take the colours to use in the sky
Red ones and yellow and blue and hot white
Blaze from a distance on this watercolour night
