Lyrics

Burn Bright (lyrics by Nathan Walter and Jimmie Myers)

Sales clerks in button-down collared shirts
Soggy cardboard flatteries
On a campaign trail of smile-masked details
So genuine, who could doubt them

I know it is tight,
but eventually it will fit right

I found what makes you eyes burn blue and bright
Green when the ghost is behind your eyes
Packed inside those flashing whites
Oh, so tight
I swear I've seen him packing backs
I hope he is gone for good this time

I know it is tight,
but eventually it will fit right
and besides, I found what made your eyes burn
Burn bright
Whether they are blue or green

Where were you going?
Wading through my authenticity
As if you could find something better
Oh God, I know you will

The mirror takes one look at me and turns the other cheek
I swear I saw a light out of the corner of my eye
Moving swiftly down the stairs and out of the front door
I jump the rail and run outside
To my surprise there is no one there.

HOO HA!
