Firebird Lyrics by Why We Run

Holograms

2016

[Verse 1]
Candle light against the wall trapped in the dark
The fire alarm flashing red and black
Right above our house a firebird crossed the sky
And I know they’ll be back again
Carry your past behind

[Chorus]
Bury your thoughts in wine
Bring everybody in your life
The world that you left behind
Lost in the golden mine
Tell everybody we’ll be fine

[Verse 2]
Whales are tired, tourists heading home
Closing down, the shutters on the streets
Right above our house a firebird crossed the sky
And I know they’ll be back again
Carry your past behind

[Chorus]
Bury your thoughts in wine
Bring everybody in your life
The world that you left behind
Lost in the golden mine
Tell everybody we’ll be fine
Carry your past behind

Bury your thoughts in wine
Bring everybody in your life
The world that you left behind
Lost in the golden mine
Tell everybody we’ll be fine
