Josh Pyke - Factory Fires lyrics

Well you can stay in the town that gave birth to you to return to the earth it's built on Or you can run like the river flowing down to the ocean or a road and on each thereon And all the music in the world is a swimming pool on the top of the tallest building Bubbling up to a boil on the water pealing off those echoing walls Please Don't let the fires go out in the factories Don't let the fires go out in your house Cause I've always been ready for some steady work There's never been enough of it to go around And I never really know why you stick with me I only know I'm still stuck on you But if the fires go out in the factories Then the fires go out in me too And greeting each day with the same heavy hand holds the hand that made the crack in the door And lately I've been thinking that the days feel longer as a life gets a little too short When weeds grow up in the parking lots we shouldn't tell them that we wanted them to And I always hoped that the difference in me would be enough to make a difference to you Please Don't let the fires go out in the factories Don't let the fires go out in your house Cause I've always been ready for some steady work There's never been enough of it to go around And I never really know why you stick with me I only know I'm still stuck on you But if the fires go out in the factories Then the fires go out in me too And I never really know why you stick with me I only know I'm still stuck on you But if the fires go out in the factories Then the fires go out in me too
