Sudden Urge lyrics

We are names and we are faces not listed in the pages

You're searching line by line

The voices in the wire, the glass under your tires

The panic in your eyes

And when we start to lose control

And when we start to lose our minds

That's when I close my eyes and feel a sudden urge (whoa oh oh oh)

To watch this whole town burn (whoa oh oh oh)

Light up the whole damn sky (whoa oh oh oh)

Like the Fourth of July, like the Fourth of July, hey!

I am as patient as a volcano

A butterfly in a landmine field

I am a dandelion making guns go silent

Sticking out of every barrel cold as steel

And in this fight you started, I'm a moving target

And I'm sick of running, but the pain keeps coming

Like a sudden urge (whoa oh oh oh)

To watch this whole town burn (whoa oh oh oh)

Light up the whole damn sky (whoa oh oh oh)

Like the Fourth of July, like the Fourth of July, hey!

Searching for something worth saving from this fire

Try to envision the glass half-full

Give me a reason to smother these flames, now

Before they begin to grow

I can't stop the sky from falling

All I hear are voices calling

Asking, "Have you come to heal us?"

Touch my shaking hand

You'll feel a sudden urge (whoa oh oh oh)

To watch this whole town burn (whoa oh oh oh)

Light up the whole damn sky (whoa oh oh oh)

Like the Fourth of July, the Fourth of July

From brach to root, we are black inside

Scorching the Earth like it's the Fourth of July

If everything you knew was a goddamn lie

Would you up and explode

Like it's the Fourth of July?
