The Crookes - Roman Candle lyrics

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 The days'll run away So let's go up in flames 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 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 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 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 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
