Things We Lost in the Fire Lyrics


    Things we lost to the flame
    Things we'll never see again
    All that we've amassed
    Sits before us, shattered into ash

    These are the things, the things we lost
    The things we lost in the fire fire fire
    These are the things, the things we lost
    The things we lost in the fire fire fire

    We sat and made a list
    Of all the things that we have
    Down the backs of table tops
    Ticket stubs and your diaries
    I read them all one day
    When loneliness came and you were away
    Oh they told me nothing new,
    But I love to read the words you used

    These are the things, the things we lost
    The things we lost in the fire fire fire
    These are the things, the things we lost
    The things we lost in the fire fire fire

    I was the match and you were the rock
    Maybe we started this fire
    We sat apart and watched
    All we had burned on the pyre

    (You said) we were born with nothing
    And we sure as hell have nothing now
    (You said) we were born with nothing
    And we sure as hell have nothing now

    These are the things, the things we lost
    The things we lost in the fire fire fire
    These are the things, the things we lost
    The things we lost in the fire fire fire

    Flames they licked the walls
    Tenderly they turned to dust all that I adore
