Artist/Band: Dashboard Confessional
Lyrics for Song: I Light My Own Fires Now
Lyrics for Album: The Shade Of Poison Trees [2007]



Slip out the back before those

Handlers get to tight on you

I light my own fires now

I light my own fires now



Slip in this town like it was

Measured to fit right on you

We light our own fires now

We lead ourselves into the night

Oh yeah,

I don't think I'll be held inside an ordinary cell

Am I the escape or

Am I the escape artist?

I know,

I know it's just a question of details



Or one of,

Denial.

Could all of this trip wire

Cut so easy?



We'll just see



Cut the alarm before the

Motion sets off its sensors

We move in silence now

We guard our secrets with our lives

And cover our tracks so we are

Protected from surveillance

We move in silence now

We lead ourselves into the fight



Into the fight

Into the fight

Into the fight



And all the saints

Will rise again

As sons of wealthy men

Tear the whole world down before our eyes



And all the signs

We should have read

While we ignored the dead

Will haunt us long after the last of us has died



Slip out the back before those

Handlers get too tight on you

I light my own fires now

I light my own fires now



Slip in this town like it was

Measured to fit right on you

We light our own fires now

We lead ourselves into the night
