[Verse 1]

Hear the sound of your music ringing

Set a fire to the parking lot

Hold off until the weekend

It's twelve o'clock and I'm feeling lost

Drive down an open freeway

Watch the fire until it's gone

Tomorrow seems so far away

But next thing you know it's gone

[Pre-Chorus]

These Friday nights haven't been the same since

I'm lost in thought on a twin-sized mattress

Don't leave me standing in these old pretences

Nothing's ever really gonna make sense

Blurry nights and faces grinning

This could be the end, or a beginning

Lonely road getting lost on the way

Now I'm looking for the words to say

[Chorus]

Now while our lives are strange

I want you to know that you can here with me

(She said we're burning daylight)

Through the nights and the endless dreams

Because nothing's ever what it seems to be

(She said we're burning daylight)

[Verse 2]

Hear the sound of your heartbeat racing

As the last clock's rung and done

Holding onto that vacant feeling

You're never ready when the past is gone

Trying hard just to get away from

Expectations that you know are wrong

Tomorrow seemed so far away but

Now it's come and gone

[Pre-Chorus]

These Friday nights haven't been the same since

I'm lost in thought on a twin-sized mattress

Don't leave me standing in these old pretences

Nothing's ever really gonna make sense

Blurry nights and faces grinning

This could be the end, or a beginning

Lonely road getting lost on the way

Now I'm looking for the words to say

[Chorus]

Now while our lives are strange

I want you to know that you can here with me

(She said we're burning daylight)

Through the nights and the endless dreams

Because nothing's ever what it seems to be

(She said we're burning daylight)

[Bridge]

[Chorus]

Now while our lives are strange

I want you to know that you can be here with me

(She said we're burning daylight)

Through the nights and forgotten dreams

Because nothing's ever what it seems to be

(She said we're burning daylight)
