Roman Candle

[Verse 1]
Please don't live the same year eighty times
Lord knows that if you do you can't ever call that a life
It's true my darling, I love watching TV in your tiny room
But I swear there must be so much more
Stepping out your door

[Chorus]
The days'll run away
So let's go up in flames
Hey!

[Verse 2]
It's obscene, when I was seventeen I had no wisdom teeth
They say "just be yourself" like that's an easy thing to be
No you don't need a boyfriend now, oh honey pie, oh girl
I'll show you the world
Here's another photo staring back at me

[Chorus]
The days'll run away
Maybe this time tomorrow
I'll have something to say
These days'll run away
Burning like a Roman Candle
And we'll go up in flames

[Bridge]
Fireworks and new skies
Explode anti-clockwise from the past
There's no use in looking back
But I could tell you a story
I'm dying for glory, don't want fame
Just wanna burn, go up in flames

[Chorus]
The days'll run away
Maybe this time tomorrow
I'll have something to say
Yeah the days'll run away
Burning like a Roman Candle
So let's go up in flames

The days'll run away
Burning like a Roman Candle
Let's go up, up, up in flames
These days'll run away
Take my hand, oh! Come on darling
Come on let's be brave
