You said "Play my song or I won't dance.
Play the record.
Please don't call it romance.
When the morning comes
pack your bag, it's done.
I hope you understand."

Did you forget the rainy day?
That I needed what you needed?
Did you forget the rainy day?
That I bleeded?
That I sealed it?

You say "Play my song or I won't dance.
Play the record.
Please don't call it romance."

Matches (Acoustic Live)

Remember the song we used to play?
It took place on Mars but now we'd rather stay,
because it's true,
it's no life for me and you,
but all the people talked about it.
That's all we had those days.

I got your letter.
I read all the words,
about the life you left
for the one you deserve.
You got your ticket
to the red dirt
and all I got
was this lousy t-shirt.

Greetings From Mars

Slowly rising,
I can take you, Rider.
It's your fire,
my time is yours.
I can fake a smile but
it's surely erasing.
You're calming yourself right down to me.
Hold your breath then breathe.

Dark skies,
blurred minds.
Home is miles away now.
I am calling you mine,
pretending it's a fair fight.
Hiding all you left behind.
Lovers with a dark insight.

A secret desire
reserved for a saintly liar.
This is your first fire.
