The Firework

If it's not happening then he will stop

But she must say or he may not

Is that her heart beating or is that his again?

Is that her smiling or a reflection of his own toothed face?Time and time again he feels her warmth amidst

Is that really her or a hopeless optimist?

Now he's made his decision but she hasn't made hers

Now she's made her decision and his eyes are blurredThis is now and that was then

But he's not saying it won't build up again

'Cause her smile it's made of clay

Takes time to mold but creates a brighter dayTime and time again he feels her warmth amidst

Is that really her or a hopeless optimist?

Now he's made his decision but she hasn't made hers

Now she's made her decision and his eyes are blurredThere was you, okay? There was you, okay?

And you nearly saw me slip and slide

(The firework)

But you didn't see me slip and slide

(The firework)

And you nearly saw me slip and slide

(The firework)

But you didn't, oh no

(The firework)Time and time again he feels her warmth amidst

But is that really her or a hopeless optimist?

Now he's made his decision but she hasn't made hers

Now she's made her decision and his eyes are blurredThere was you, okay? There was you, okay?

And you nearly saw me slip and slide

But you didn't see me slip and slide

And you nearly saw me slip and slide

But you didn't, oh noThere was you, okay? There was you, okay?

And you nearly saw me slip and slide

(The firework)

But you didn't see me slip and slide

(The firework)

And you nearly saw me slip and slide

(The firework)

But you didn't, oh no

(The firework)That's what you get when you change the modes

That's what you get when your head explodes

That's what you get if you tip a cow

Can you feel it now?Just so you know, I'll be fine

I'm inclined to end up fine

Just so you know I'm smiling

I always smile in denial
