Lighter Torches - Adults

I wish my compass picked up fire
It would always point to you
With your balance between airs
And your liquid attitude
They could hang me from the trees
They could throw me to the dogs
I would smile while I croak
Don't call me nihilist or escapist or lame
The credits read your name
Wide awake at night
With just your silhouette in the moonlight where we lie
Wide awake at night
Happy should I kick it
Cross my heart and hope to die in style
I'm pretty sure that's not a lie
I'd rage fuck anyone I know
If I could spare the energy after a walk
With you in the park at dawn
After we fed all the dogs
And we'd talk about the world
How we're pretty OK
If this ain't love I need more hate
Don't call me random things you looked up on your phone
Just make sure I'm not alone
Wide awake at night
With just your silhouette in the moonlight where we lie
Wide awake at night
Happy should I kick it
Cross my heart and hope to die in style
And you said...
It's a lie I know when you curl into my side
It's a lie I know when you lay your hand in mine
It's a lie I know when we intertwine our thighs
It's a lie I know 'cause I'm no longer 25
I swear to God I will grow old with you
But saying I'd die young for you sounds romantic and cool
Wide awake at night
With just your silhouette in the moonlight where we lie
Wide awake at night
Happy should I kick it
In a life where we're each other's own
Fuck, if that's a lie I don't wanna know
