I Think I'll Start A Fire
Faunts Lyrics

He's got a bad heart station
He keeps it to the side
If he had an early conversation
This wouldn't be a thing to hide

Heat wave
We haven't seen you for a long, long while
Truly you still worry about yourself

High tide

We haven't used as sharply on the mind (?)
I tried, but when we lose the fight to stay
It's fine, I will be back in no time
I will speak to you
I think we'll start a fire
I think we'll start a fire
I think we'll start a fire

Fire from someone who knows
Leave it to me to lead slowly

And before I let you fall asleep tonight
Sit beside me, right beside me

Red lights
We haven't seen you for a long, long while
It's taking so long to see

The headlights
I haven't been here for a long, long while

I think I'll start a fire
And keep it to the side
The conversation starts to tire
This shouldn't be a thing to hide

Embracing a moody, introspective pop sound that's smart, tuneful, forceful, and sweetly melancholy all at once, Faunts were formed in 2000 by Tim Batke and his brother Steven Batke, who hail from Edmonton, Alberta, Canada. With Tim handling guitar, keyboards, and vocals while Steven contributed vocals and guitar, Faunts became a trio with the addition of percussionist Paul Arnusch.

With Tim handling guitar, keyboards, and vocals while Steven contributed vocals and guitar, Faunts became a trio with the addition of percussionist Paul Arnusch. After Joel Hitchcock signed on as the group's keyboard player and Scott Gallant became their bassist, Faunts set out to make a name for themselves on Northern Canada's music scene, and steady club work led to concert dates opening for Broken Social Scene, Do Make Say Think, and Stars. After two well-received tours of Canada, Faunts struck a deal with the independent Friendly Fire label, and the group released their debut album, High Expectations/Low Results, in the fall of 2005. A five-song EP, M4, appeared in late 2007, released only via digital download services; the EP featured music created to accompany a series of short films presented as part of a multimedia project. One of the songs, "M4, Pt. 2," was featured in the popular video game Mass Effect for the PC and Xbox 360. By this time, Hitchcock had left the group and another member of the Batke family, Rob Batke, had joined the lineup on keyboards and laptop manipulations.

The band is also currently on hiatus.
