Bottle rockets and smoke bombs lying dead on the sidewalk
Black marks on the concrete now but they were beautiful last night
A picture of our life.
Can we make this how it was?
Everything is right, everything's wrong
Sparklers only burn for so long.
Tightrope walking, balancing on a thin telephone line
The wind blows and you wanna call it off, the cars below keep going by
And I'll be getting tired.
Careful you're gonna fall.
Everything is right, everything's wrong
Sparklers only burn for so long.
I'ma paint you land that swings, trapped in the dissapearing setting sun,
the moon it don't book a match it's burning in it's own reflection
Everything is right, everything's wrong
Letting go is the best way to hold on
So watch the light burn in the dark until it's gone
Sparklers only burn for so long.
