Swan Matches Lyrics

Grand Archives Swan Matches

I remember hours scraped away
hospital blue paint off the wall,
like it would take forever.

Lighting those swan matches to see
just how long they'll take to burn out,
like they could burn forever.

How we envied all those actors lives,
how that cricket talked all night,
like he could talk forever.

Then I thought I'd heard you in the hall,
turns out that it wasn't you at all,
I guess you had to be there.

And I remember how fast we ran
I remember how fast we ran

We flew over fences.
We dodged all the moving cars,
and the dry Arizona faces,
the dry Arizona faces.

And how we stayed awake all night long
How we stayed awake all night long

We flew over fences.
We dodged all the moving cars,
and the dry Arizona faces,
the dry Arizona faces.
