strangers in the doorways - kill the vultures lyrics

Loading...

the strangers in the doorway embrace under the porchlight
lingering like candles ’til our morning fades ’em down
the woman’s legs are golden and their burning like a torch might
but i’ve never seen a fire float so carelessly around

outside the rain is fast and sharp/ but in my head it’s warm
sleeping cars out in the street are now abandoned boats
the strangers share a cigarette/ an ember in the storm
i think maybe i know them well/ but all i see is smoke

chorus:
a careless flame don’t burn the same
a careless flame ain’t yours to tame

the strangers in the doorway are acting out a cl-ssic
the woman holds him tightly as if he’s her darkest secret
electric veins across the sky strike a lonely attic
and now the flames are spreading fast, the wind just helps to feed it

the strangers in the doorway are dripping wet with tension
the neighborhood’s on fire and she’s looking at her mood ring
she murders me with dignity and severs every sentence
but we all know man-eaters sink if they don’t continue moving

chorus

the strangers in the doorway are arguing in thunder
the water’s at their ankles and the fire spreads methodic
she cursed the day she met me/ she’s set to put me under
the city melts around us and there ain’t no time for logiic

chorus
