Things We Lost In The Fire - Bastille

Things We Lost In The Fire Lyrics

Things we lost to the flames
Things we'll never see again
All that we've amassed
Sits before us, shattered into ashThese are the things, the things we lost
The things we lost in the fire fire fire
These are the things, the things we lost
The things we lost in the fire fire fireWe sat and made a list
Of all the things that we had
Down the backs of table tops
Ticket stubs and your diaries
I read them all one day
When loneliness came and you were away
Oh they told me nothing new,
But I love to read the words you usedThese are the things, the things we lost
The things we lost in the fire fire fire
These are the things, the things we lost
The things we lost in the fire fire fireI was the match and you were the rock
Maybe we started this fire

We sat apart and watched
All we had burned on the pyre(You said) we were born with nothing
And we sure as hell have nothing now
(You said) we were born with nothing
And we sure as hell have nothing nowThese are the things, the things we lost
The things we lost in the fire fire fire
These are the things, the things we lost
The things we lost in the fire fire fireDo you understand that we will never be the same again?
Do you understand that we will never be the same again?
The future's in our hands and we will never be the same again
The future's in our hands and we will never be the same againThese are the things, the things we lost
The things we lost in the fire fire fire
These are the things, the things we lost
The things we lost in the fire fire fireThese are the things, the things we lost
These are the things we lost in the fire fire fireFlames they licked the walls
Tenderly they turned to dust all that I adore
