lyrics

We didn't mean to start the fire
Then it just kept climbing higher
It burned all night and by the dawn
Half the city was gone
The flames and smoke engulfed the sky
Surrounding towns could not survive
The ferocious hunger of the blaze
Oh will we be saved

I always knew this day would come
we've so much practice on the run
finding warmth in each others arms
protected, free and safe from harm
and if the sun should forget to shine
you know i think that we'd be just fine
living on the edge of the night
forever chasing rays of light
and if we never see another day
we won't descend into a hopeless haze
because we've made ourselves a little home
gazing out into the unknown

Even if the sun drowns
I'll never let you down
if all you see are black clouds
I'll turn your faith around
even if the rays die
we'll make our own sunlight
through the love we've made
we'll see another day
the spotlights came and we fled
and though for now we've spread
far across state lines
our love still brightly shines

And if the sun should forget to shine
you know i think that we'd be just fine
living on the edge of the night
forever chasing rays of light
and if we never see another day
we won't descend into a hopeless haze
because we've made ourselves a little home
gazing out into the unknown
the little voice inside of my head
that thinks were all just better off dead
is fatalistic and flawed at best
so I have put all of these thoughts to rest

Turn your self around
we won't make a sound
just give me your hand
soon we'll understand
all the selfish ways
we've wasted our days
to give ourselves away
or so we'd like to say

Even if the sun drowns
I'll never let you down
if all you see are black clouds
I'll turn your faith around
even if it takes all year
i want you to have no fear
or any trace of doubt
that we will see this out
even if the rays die
we'll make our own sunlight
through the love we've made
we'll see another day
