You're floating through the perfect dawn
The morning dew blessing the lawns
When you wake up, you run for the hills
Diving off cliffsides just for the thrill
Summer sun warping the pavement
I used to aim light beams through a glass lens
When I was young, burning garden ants
Now I know what it is to feel like them
But somehow I look up turning
And it's still me doing the burning
You're floating through the perfect streets
Neighbors getting scorched to the fourth degree
When you emerge from the water you sigh
And witness the wildfire of my life
When I was young, never had to try
Said when I'm grown, I'll be alright
My father is drowning in the sweat from his brow
My sister is melting, no escaping this now
My mother is screaming cause I burned down her house
All our memories ashes, no escaping this now
The mayor berates me for destroying his town
I've been exiled from my home, no escaping this now
Now you levitate toward me
Look in your eyes and feel free
Roaring flames reduced to embers
All the smoke clear in November
Each step you take puts the fire out
Maybe we can all escape this now
I can't shake the suspicion
This isn't the end, just an intermission
