Lay down in the doorway in front of me And make yourself impossible for me to leave I remember a kid in the water, I remember a world on fire I was just coming out of it, it was so hot all summer I get so far, so fast I get so far, so fast The storm, the blackout, the quiet sea You went running right into it, away from me We have friends in good houses, we have kids in the trees Now I have nothing but sleepless nights, about everything I get so far, so fast I get so far, so fast Don't you know someday somebody will come and find you?
