Like You Like an Arsonist

I have the same dream every night
And in the end i always wake up
Right before i cry out like a child in the dead of the night
Scared of thunder scared of might
But you're by my side
And we were both born on the fourth of july
About fifteen minutes before midnight
My mother's bridesmaids dressed in black
And her bouquet was drenched in gas
Some tradition from her past
My father's hands were painted red
To show that he had some success i guess
And they were both born on the fourth of july
About fifteen minutes before midnight
I feel like an arsonist
Because you are my perfect match
And you light up everything around you
I feel like an arsonist
And it's not an accident
That you light up everything around you
My mother's hair was braided black
And running clean right down her back
Cutting her white dress in half
Her ring it sparkled ruby red
Her lipstick kissed into a mess i guess
And they were both born on the fourth of july
About 15 minutes before midnight
I feel like an arsonist
Because you are my perfect match
And you light up everything around you
I feel like an arsonist
And it's not an accident
That you light up everything around you
I was never under control
And i knew i would never get old
I was always fast and so free
And taller than the highest of trees
It's time to take it up a degree
And there is really nothing i need
I just have to remember to breathe
And guard against the heat when around you
