lyrics

if you set a bridge on fire

don't blame it on the flames

(not this time)

I’m trying to stay clean

from wet cheeks for a while
(just for a while)

we fly our paper kites

that blow up as they crash
(like that one time)

martyrs dagger dragons
but they leave their ghosts to me

we are shaking hands demurely 

that have shaken other things before

(how many times)

and we gave each other head starts

always on the rebound

real heroes stab all kinds of monsters
is it so hard to dagger me?

and when the monster stops growing

is it doomed to die?
