Quickfire, I Tried Lyrics
Quickfire, I tried to be your solitude
And to border and protect and to greet you
Quickfire, I tried to be fun
But by the time that I was drunk you were gone
Quickfire, I tried to not be sad
But the fabric wore away upon my knee
Quickfire, I tried to be romantic
But the silver is still waiting on the mantle
Where your mother left it sitting last fall...
La, da-da
Quickfire, I tried to take your gifts
But I cannot change the way I hate most objects
Quickfire, I thought about the prize
But they told me that I’d have to compromise
Quickfire, I tried to be good
But my fathers live inside me like old servants
Quickfire, I tried to not go crazy
But the winter got inside me anyway
And it knows how long to stay...
La, da-da
Quickfire, are we bound to be alone
Or be together like a stone is with a stone?
Quickfire, we are bound to be alone
Or be together like a stone is with a stone
Quickfire, I have tried to settle down
But I am lifted by the sirens in my blood
And they are not done with their song...
La, da-da
And to border and protect and to greet you
But by the time that I was drunk you were gone
But the fabric wore away upon my knee
But the silver is still waiting on the mantle
Where your mother left it sitting last fall...
La, da-da
But I cannot change the way I hate most objects
But they told me that I’d have to compromise
But my fathers live inside me like old servants
But the winter got inside me anyway
And it knows how long to stay...
La, da-da
Or be together like a stone is with a stone?
Or be together like a stone is with a stone
But I am lifted by the sirens in my blood
And they are not done with their song...
La, da-da
