Sirens
Make Out Monday Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
looking for you on the boulevards
circling you house just kicking cars
and waiting on sirens
waiting on sirens
it's been 6 months since i heard from you
finally drop the lock
probably burn the proof
left me posing for the camera in the boyz in blue
do you still have the scrapbook you made for me
sometimes i think i'm the pages
that'll never be
you said we're cuffed to the past you
you found the key
you're never long back but after me
i spend these nights
chasing stars
looking for you on the boulevards
circlining your house just kicking cars
and waiting on sirens
waiting on sirens
it's been 6 months and that murder scene
drawing chart outlines to make sense on the screen
you said you had enought gas to burn memories
as you lit the match swore you never leave
now i spend these nights chasing stars
looking for you on the boulevards
circling your house just kicking cars
and waiting on sirens
well i spend these nights causing fires
swinging on the bridges falling apart
circling your house just kicking cars
and waiting on sirens
waiting on sirens
it's all in vain it's all in vain
i dream of you as i course your name
switching them laces to size your player
offering them bridges offering them bridges
where are you now where are you now
do you spend your nights just talking too loud
im playin' in my voice and my sirens up but you probably nevereven think about why
well i spend these nights chasing stars
looking for you on the boulevards
circling your house just kicking cars
and waiting, waiting
now i spend these nights causing fires
swinging on the bridges falling apart
circling your house just kicking cars
and waiting on sirens
waiting on sirens
it's all in vain
its all in vain
i dream of you as i curse your name
i'm just waiting, waiting
where are you now
where are you now
do you spend your nights just talking to loud
i'm just waiting, waiting
waiting on sirens
waiting on sirens
just waiting, waiting
waiting on sirens
