lyrics

Black powder sunset, you know it's all the same
She tells me of all the world, but not her name
Breathe deeply I'll be that you can feel there's something strange
And after all, she says, I'm to blame, I'm to blame, I'm to blame, I'm to blame, yeah

How are we anything more than we're supposed to be?
'Cause all I see is looking straight back to you
How can we do anything more than lose the pieces too?
How are we anything more than you?

Preach to the choir, you know we'll sing along
But who bears the consequence of what we've done?
Don't hold me late at night and tell me it's alright
It's not that kind of fight, and we both know it
Just hold me up to see the smoke and all the trees melt away
Melt away, oh

How are we anything more than we're supposed to be?
'Cause all I see is looking straight back to you
How can we do anything more than lose the pieces too?
How are we anything more than you?

How are we anything more than we're supposed to be?
'Cause all I see is looking straight back to you
How can we do anything more than lose the pieces too?
How are we anything more than you?
