New London Fire - Tonight lyrics

The streets are on fire in the town that you were born

and all these busy nights took shape in an awkward form.

How do you lay with him near?

She says "when it comes I just disappear.

And I feel so gross

in the middle

where my heart goes.

I'll get it right

what I'm feeling and believing

if I get home ronight."

Sun is coming up and I think of where you've been

you'd feel a little impatient if you were living in my skin.

The words just fade in my ear.

I could take it all but I'm not living when you're not here.

And I feel so cold

in the middle

where my heart goes.

I'll get it right

what I'm feeling and believing

if I get home tonight.

The look on your face

you can't take away

I'll wait for it everyday.

There's a picture I have of you in my mind

you look so perfect and the sun just burns in your eyes.

As the hours fade you remain

underneath the sweat and skin that you betray.

And I feel so gross

in the middle

where my heart goes.

I'll get it right

what I'm feeling and believing

if I get home tonight
