Fire and Stone by Evan Greer Lyrics

We used to act like we were ten years old

Sittin' on rooftops in the morning cold

And we pointed at the city

Though we'd never be so bold

And all i needed was a hand to hold

It's a somewhat addictive state of mind

To always be hoping for another glimpse inside

And even though i know you're telling everybody else

I can still think that i heard it first

Because i need a friend and i can pretend

That you might need one too
Because i've done too much traveling alone

And i'm too goddamn far from home

I think I'm mostly flesh. i think you're mostly bone

I am made of fire; you're made of stone

I thought you might be my someone in the sand

I thought i might be something you needed

Like a good friend

But you can keep your distance

I guess i'll understand

No one really wants a fire on their hands

So let's climb the flagpole!

See how high we get before we fall

Let's meet in the bell tower
If we can ever get up there at all

And we can watch the gears turn

Because a stone will crack before it burns

Still a fire never learns
