Okkervil River - One Soul Less On Your Fiery List lyrics

My eyes are filled with light My feet hardly touch the ground From up here I can see the sights My hometown city burning down Now it blazes for me house by house And my legs buckle under me I don't mind, I sing a new song of joy For I know why it was and why had to be Flames grow higher higher Flames grow higher Licks my name from your lips as we kiss Higher higher Flames grow higher Now there's one soul less on your fiery list Now there's one soul less on your fiery list Now I char these old deserted streets I know the names, I know where to turn All this time I kept a roadmap in my mind I just came back to watch the people in their houses burn Flames grow higher higher Flames grow higher Erase my name from your lips as we kiss Higher higher Flames grow higher Now there's one soul less on your fiery list Flames grow higher Flames grow higher now Erase my name from your lips as we kiss Higher Flames grow higher Now there's one soul less on your fiery list Now there's one soul less on your fiery list One soul less on your fiery list One soul less on your fiery list One soul less on your fiery list One soul less, there's one soul less Hometown farewell Hometown farewell Hometown farewell Hometown farewell kiss
