Good Morning Fire Eater Lyrics
Wake up your eyes
And darling, your smile
The day is done and everyone's gone now
You can taste every fire
And hold every song
The world has moved
Be quick enough to not miss it now
So wake up your eyes
And darling, your smile
I'm afraid you've stopped to lick your wounds
Dear, do you know?
I'm afraid you've stopped to lick your wounds
Wake up your eyes
Darling, it's time
To hope that forever they'll dry out
It never takes long
And everything's gone
I only know her beauty won't fade out
Back on your side
Darling, you lie to yourself
I'm afraid you've stopped to lick your wounds
Dear, do you know?
I'm afraid you've stopped to lick your wounds
Cause it's no good if you can't have it all.
I'd give it back but I never stole the first part.
And it always goes when you need it most,
The kindest love is still bleeding from the last shot.
And darling, your smile
The day is done and everyone's gone now
You can taste every fire
And hold every song
The world has moved
Be quick enough to not miss it now
So wake up your eyes
And darling, your smile
Dear, do you know?
I'm afraid you've stopped to lick your wounds
Darling, it's time
To hope that forever they'll dry out
It never takes long
And everything's gone
I only know her beauty won't fade out
Darling, you lie to yourself
Dear, do you know?
I'm afraid you've stopped to lick your wounds
I'd give it back but I never stole the first part.
And it always goes when you need it most,
The kindest love is still bleeding from the last shot.

Amazing amazing song! Copeland is such a great band
not sure about the last line but that's what i heard. =/
the lyrics for the last line im pretty sure are actually "the kindest love is still bleeding from the last shot"
Just got the new cd and I am jamming to this song.
I think the last line pretty much sums it up: "the kindest love is still bleeding from the last shot"
Real love, true love is expressed by loving and moving forward even when it hurts more than anything. It's kind of like that analogy of turning the other cheek and loving anyway. When they say I'm afraid you've stopped to lick your wounds, maybe its like, it's no good to sit hurt and dwell on how you've been hurt... which is something we all do.
But "it's no good if you can have it all." That's not real life.
some of this is not correct..this is from the booklet in the cd: Wake up your eyes And darling, your smile The day is done and everyone's gone now You can taste every fire And hold every song The world has moved Be quick enough to not miss it now So wake up your eyes And darling, your smile
I'm afraid you've stopped to lick your wounds Dear, do you know? I'm afraid you've stopped to lick your wounds
Wake up your eyes Darling, it's time To hope that forever they'll dry out It never takes long And everything's gone I only know her beauty won't fade out
Back on your side Darling, you lie....to yourself
I'm afraid you've stopped to lick your wounds Dear, do you know? I'm afraid you've stopped to lick your wounds
Cause it's no good if you can't have it all. I'd give it back but I never stole the first part. And it always goes when you need it most, The kindest love is still bleeding from the last shot.
definitely about moving on, or more specifically moving one from love. also its about just seeing the pain in love. hence the name "good morning, fire eater" fire eater meaning someone who only takes the pain and hurt, not appreciating the other benefits of love. "The kindest love is still bleeding from the last shot." even the best love is still painful.
the licking the wounds line refers to stopping in dwelling in your hurt.
