Lyrics

[Verse 1]
On the fire escape
We stopped and we looked down
Through the broken glass
Oh, the sirens are all spies
[Verse 2]
When you're still midway
It's not too late to just turn back
It's not too late to just turn back
[Verse 3]
The winter is cruel round here
The future is not down there
Why can't they just think like us?
Why can't they just think like us?
Why can't they just think like us?
[Verse 4]
If you've got flags to wear
You should be careful what you sell
On the fire escape
I think I slipped, I think I fell
[Verse 5]
But you're still midway
It's not too late to just turn back
It's not too late to just turn back
[Verse 6]
The winter is cruel round here
The future is not down there
Why can't they just think like us?
Why can't they just think like us?
Why can't they just think like us?
[Verse 7]
We were raised by strangers
The life that you had in mind
Was just a moth and a light
Was just a moth and a light
Was just a moth and a light
