got yourself out of the fire man
so close that you go and get burned and
then i run through furious night
daydream through the middle of strife
too much life is a booby trap waiting
right things in all the wrong places
every dawn is just a day away
the best thing is to live through changes

you gave yourself to me
you gave yourself to me

a smile before leaving
the future's all a dream
slowly, slowly cast away
drifting on a sea
sailing into you
where i want to be

i lay awake to the buzz of my system
planet shift alone in my wisdom
where'd you go when you run away
i come to you whenever you say
steal me from the mess i'm making
paranoid to the point of breaking
speeding past all the laundry mat
do you think that i'll make it back

you gave yourself to me
you gave yourself to me

a smile before leaving
the future's all a dream
slowly, slowly we cast away
drifting on a sea
sailing into you
sailing into you

get yourself
out of the fire
get yourself
fire, fire, fire

the future's all a dream
slowly, slowly we cast away
drifting on a sea
sailing into you
oh

the future's all a dream
slowly, slowly we cast away
we cast away, we cast away
