[Verse 1]
Here's the thing
It's crowded in the streets
I lost track of a love I thought I needed
Here's the thing
I'm holding out
I really want out of this room
But I just don't know how
See I've been digging through playlists for the tracks you like
I'm not a traitor to the union, but a sacrifice
Just how I feel
I guess that I should deal with it
[Chorus]
Now there's fires in the backyard
Burning up for so long
Oh, I thought I'd found the one
And now I'm getting lonely
Thinking 'bout the day
You had left, not a word
Either way it still hurts
But I'm alive
[Verse 2]
Here's the thing
It's quiet in the sheets
Scratch at the itch and peer into the deep
Here's the thing
I'm calling out
I really cannot make sense of this noise
No I can't figure it out
See I've been hitting up dealers for the things you'd buy
And to them I air my grievances, they roll their eyes
It's just a deal
They don't care how you feel
[Chorus]
Now there's fires in the backyard
Burning up for so long
Oh, I thought I'd found the one
And now I'm getting lonely
Thinking 'bout the day
You had left, not a word
Either way it still hurts
But I'm alive
[Bridge]
Sitting in the kitchen
Drinking wine, feeling fine
Desires come and go
But I'm enjoying my time
I wish I felt your love
But I'll never get to feel it
[Chorus]
Now there's fires in the backyard
Burning up for so long
Oh, I thought I'd found the one
