The Flame By Leilani Wolfgramm
Where were you when the flames quit burning did you take it to heart couldn’t tell it was highway hell were you caught hotboxing a car
Where where you when the waves quit breaking did we take it too far awful strange how the weather changed now we drown longboards in a bar
We pretend we’re legendary but the world is dark and scary waiting for the ship to carry save the Queen oh Mary Mary
Oh Mary Mary
Oh Mary Mary
Oh Mary Mary
Coming forth to carry me home
Where were you
Why did you run
Oh how far we’ve come
What have we done
Go on
Go on
Go on
Go on throw another log on the fire
Pour some more gas on the flame praying heaven won’t let the smoke consume us but we consumers everyday so we throw another log on the fire pour some more gas on the flame muddy waters getting hotter by Lord these blues burn black black and you can’t turn back
Where were you when the sky quit falling head stuck in a cloud
Sentimental city dust don’t settle we watched the sun set on that town
We pretend we’re legendary but the world is dark and scary waiting for the ship to carry save the Queen oh Mary Mary
Oh Mary Mary
Oh Mary Mary
Oh Mary Mary
Coming forth to carry me home
Where were you
Why did you run
Oh how far we’ve come
What have we done
Go on
Go on
Go on
Go on throw another log on the fire
Pour some more gas on the flame praying heaven won’t let the smoke consume us but we consumers everyday so we throw another log on the fire pour some more gas on the flame muddy waters getting hotter by Lord these blues burn black black and you can’t turn back
