House on Fire Video (MV)

You should have been there, man she gave it back
Your daughter still cries at the drop of a hat
Now for arguments sake let's just change with the wind
And eat til we're sick round your table talk shit

I'm still the kid that keeps you on edge
I'll make you laugh with my eyes while I lean on the bench
Coffee so late I hate sleep what's the point
You should have been tonight, we all miss your voice

I talk to the sky, but I'm not sold
All for a gravestone these babies grow old
I hope there's a place, like all the books say
Where we're gonna sit like tonight and we'll stay, that way

She said why couldn't mine turn 100 you know?
I'm stuck here to watch the clock all alone
I don't know what to say, I'll just kick it along
The garden up there must need somebody strong

There's faces you know and then some that you don't
If you heard 'em talk man you wouldn't cope
They're a house on fire, they're a party for two
I wish that you'd met when you felt like you used to

I talk to the sky, but I'm not sold
All for a gravestone these babies grow old
I hope there's a place, like all the books say
Where we're gonna sit like tonight and we'll stay, that way

Why do I feel like you're in me on stage, shaking around like my bodies your cage
You're loading the words at the back of my head while I'm cocked like a shotgun
Eyes locked on the end
A transient night, nothing here to report, except all of life's meaning, just echoed down the hall
You should have been there tonight, it was everything that you liked

I talk to the sky, but I'm not sold
All for a gravestone these babies grow old
I hope there's a place, like all the books say
Where we're gonna sit like tonight and we'll stay, that way
