Lyric discussion by holdingontowater 

"Bottle rockets and smoke bombs lying dead on the sidewalk Black marks on the concrete now but they were beautiful last night A picture of our life. Can we make this how it was?"

relating a relationship to fireworks. once beautiful and exciting but now dull black marks on the concrete. can the excitment in the relationship be reignited?

"Everything is right, everything's wrong Letting go is the best way to hold on So watch the light burn in the dark until it's gone Sparklers only burn for so long."

letting go is the best way to hold on for example with money you can hold on to it forever but what good does it do you. it is better spent on something of more personal value. but more applicably rocky is probably refering to not worrying about what your going to miss when it's gone but letting go of those concerns and enjoying yourself. letting go now gives you something to hold onto later.

hence, "so let the light dance in the dark until it's gone, cause sparklers only burn for so long."

sparklers=good times
