The Bigger Lights Fiction Fever (EP) Lyrics
1.Romance In A Slow Dance

The hands are reaching for the three and the twelve But the
limbs in the light aren't fading Tangled figures dream they stay
just to spite The secret life she's parading Silent sin can
speak can sing you the ways A cabaret where secondhand hearts
can play The classic dance between the fringe and the fray Where
the hips can play (She's gonna get it, she's gonna get it)
Romance in a slow dance At the scene of the scar laces lovers
and hearts Silhouettes, (she's gonna get it) Take a chance
(she's gonna get it) Make the heat in the sheets like no one can
She shakes and makes her whispers barely discreet While the pace
and the breath start to quicken A foreign shadow slowly enters
the room To prove that he's not the victim They dance in the
dark, locking rhythms with art The fragile cliche burns at the
seams (At the seams) A dash of it's passionate, a violent flash
and It puts an end to all that's obscene (She's gonna get it)
Romance in a slow dance At the scene of the scar laces lovers
and hearts Silhouettes, (she's gonna get it) Take a chance
(she's gonna get it) Make the heat in the sheets like no one can
(Dance like no one can) Whoa-yeah! (Dance like you don't know)
She's gonna get, she's gonna get it (Dance like no one can)
Whoa-yeah! She don't know what's comin' Romance in a slow dance
At the scene of the scar laces lovers and hearts Silhouettes,
take a chance Make the heat in the sheets like no one can
Romance in a slow dance At the scene of the scar laces lovers
and hearts Silhouettes, (she's gonna get it) Take a chance
(she's gonna get it) Make the heat in the sheets like no one can


2.Closer (Time Stops Breathing)

Picture yourself painted in black starlite skies*
Like a painted canvas stained to white
Will make believe we were better of this way
Shadows taking shape in scarlet light

Give in, give up, and soak into the airwaves
Get up, get in, and bring yourself to me
Breathe in, breathe out, fingertips and heartbeats
Are all we need

Time stops breathing for a moment
If right here, right now, is all we've got
We'd better make it last
So take me and make me
A part of you apart from you tonight

Secrets on cell phones
And begged for in tongues
Behind our breath
Beneath our lungs

Closer to closure
Then we ever been
Before our bodies break and fall again

Give in, give up, and soak into the airwaves
Get up, get in, and bring yourself to me
Breathe in, breathe out, fingertips and heartbeats
Are all we need

Time stops breathing for a moment
If right here, right now, is all we've got
We'd better make it last
So take me and make me
A part of you apart from you tonight

Tonight, I'll pour myself around you
Come light, I'll learn to live without you
In a flash, you'll be gone like the moon at the dawn
Of a brand new day
And alone, alone, alone, I'll carry on

Time stops breathing for a moment
If right here, right now, is all we've got
We'd better make it last
So take me and make me
A part of you apart from you tonight


3.Reved & Ready

Danger danger, eyes on fire*
She's dressed down, revved and ready to go
Waiter waiter, something stronger
She's stealing glances, ready to go
Breathe her in and tip the glass
She's dressed down, revved and ready to go
One by one, she draws them in
Just to let them go

Don't believe a word she says
She's got a way of getting
What she wants when she wants it
From whoever's got it
And she'll break your heart if it's in her way

Scandal scandal, dark apartment
She's dressed down, revved and ready to go
Shiver shiver, at the touch
She's stealing glances, ready to go
Shut the blinds and lock the door
She's dressed down, revved and ready to go
Inch by inch, she draws me in
Just to let me go

Don't believe a word she says
She's got a way of getting
What she wants when she wants it
From whoever's got it
And she'll break your heart if it's in her way


4.Apocalypse!

Take my hand and don't let me go*
An till the sun is swallowed
And darkness comes to sing us all to sleep

Face to face without waking graves
Is this the best we've got
Is this the most we could
Have made of our homes disarray

Pick up the bottles
And nip up the air waves
We're going down
We're going down in flames

If this is it
We're dead set and ready for it
With refusing hands and bomb shelters
We're better brave then bashful and sing it

We are the beat that soldiered on
The acky eyes that made it to dawn
To kiss and wait to yesterday

Pick up the bottles
And nip up the air waves
We're going down
We're going down in flames

If this is it
We're dead set and ready for it
With refusing hands and bomb shelters
We're better brave then bashful and sing it


5.Goldmine Valentine

She's a black widow best friend*
Cold as the cock of a colt 45
She fled the scene, she shed the sheets
And sold the movie rights
She swore before her chastity
With tongue and burning cheek
But fiction can be fun, fiction can be fun

Oh no no no no, you better watch your back
Cause exes can't be oh's
Oh no no no no, you better watch your back

Goldmine valentine, my bankroll butterfly
She'll steal your heart and make you proud
Right before she sells you out
Goldmine valentine, makes out with open eyes
She'll steal to save her skin
And she steal your heart again

She's a front page fold out million dollar mouth
With a story rip to tell
But she hates to read, she moves much better
Up and down than side to side to side
She's famous for the fashion of
Her backseat bedroom action can be fun
Her backseat can be...

Oh no no no no, you better watch your back
Cause exes can't be oh's
Oh no no no no, you better watch your back

Goldmine valentine, my bankroll butterfly
She'll steal your heart and make you proud
Right before she sells you out
Goldmine valentine, makes out with open eyes
She'll steal to save her skin
And she steal your heart again


6.When Did We Lose Ourselves

So young to seem such a mess*
Dead shy and scared half to death (of the rest)
Set sail from shores of innocence
For data banks and fashion friends
We don't know what we've become
And we're freaking out
When did we lose ourselves?
When did we lose ourselves?
Love forgive what we've become
Cause we need you now
So we can save ourselves
So we can save ourselves

Transcend the trend of proofs and pills
To numb the life that you have built (and you have spilt)
Breed life to fill the void inside
And teach them all to stand in line (and fall behind)

We don't know what we've become
And we're freaking out
When did we lose ourselves?
When did we lose ourselves?
Love forgive what we've become
Cause we need you now
So we can save ourselves
So we can save ourselves
