lyrics

Love passed through me like gasoline
Burnt my insides and left me clean
We tore and tore and tore until our love was no more
And I fell asleep for two thousand years
Let the scent of gasoline disappear

Wake me when we get there

Moved by some incredible sound
My body left the ground
Towards the city covered in ashes
Eyes closed, towards the masses
Of bodies and dreams in flames
I won't forget your names

Wake me when you get there

I place my head to the ground
Place my head to the ground
There is no death
Just a tear
Where you once were

Torn heart, torn city, an immaculate dream
This love isn't blind, I watched you fall
And though love passes through like gasoline
Maybe love is redeemed
In the moment that you believed
That when you'd fall from the sky
You would fly

Wake me when if get there
Will we ever get there?
