Throw A Match

(Michael Timmins)

Wouldn’t I throw a match into your fireworks warehouse
to learn what man regards as evil
god could care less about

Wouldn’t I drop a fly into your bowl of guacamole
to learn that everything you know is just another story

Witness like a mountain absorbent as a sea
steadfast like a forest begin again with me

I can still make you sad I guess that’s a good thing
but my life comes apart whenever you’re missing

I move back towards you one beat at a time
heartbreak again your hand in mind

Witness like a mountain absorbent as a sea
steadfast like a forest, begin again with me

Wouldn’t I throw a rock through your childhood window
to get your attention ‘neath the flannel and the pillows
I’d let you know you’re a luminous beam
scorching the heavens screaming out to me

Witness like a mountain absorbent as the sea
steadfast like a forest begin again with me

Witness like a mountain absorbent as the sea
steadfast like a forest begin again with me

Wouldn’t I throw a match through your fireworks warehouse
to learn what man regards as evil
god could care less about
