Alex Turner - Fire And The Thud lyrics

[Verse 1] You showed me my tomorrow Beside a box of matches A welcome threatening stir My hopes of being stolen Might just ring true Depends who you prefer [Bridge] If it's true you're gonna run away Tell me where I'll meet you there [Verse 2] Am I snapping the excitement If I pack away the laughter And tell you how it feels? And does burden come to meet ya If I've questions of the feature That rolls on your dream reel [Bridge 2] The day after you stole my heart Everything I touched told me "It would be better shared with you With you" [Verse 3] And you're hiding in my soup And this book reveals your face And you're splashing in my eyelids As the concentration continually breaks I did request the mark you cast Didn't heal as fast I hear your voice in silences Will the teasing of the fire be followed by the thud? In the jostling crowd You're not allowed To tell the truth And the photo booth's a liar And there's a sharpened explanation But there's no screaming reason to inquire I'd like to poke them in their prying eyes With things they'd never see if it smacks them in their temples
