I breathed deep, come run away with me 
I know you want to speak and throw your hate at me 
But those fists, I'll twist into novelists 
And we'll write adventures until they exist 

Come on, let's go 
We cannot save them now  

We'll bring the ghosts of what has come before 
We'll sing to them to keep, keep their spirits warm 
Remember all the tales so we can write some more 
This house is on fire, open the fucking door 
Open the door! 

This I swear through gritted teeth 
All vulnerabilities we shall defeat 
Live fearlessly like the dancing leaves 
Come run away with me, come run away with me 

We'll run and make a home 
While they burn down the house that you have known 
Come on, let's go 
We cannot save them now, and this you know 

Submit ourselves unto raging storms 
We'll tear through thunder just like hunting hawks 
Make a little nest for us on distant shores 
This house is on fire, open the fucking door 
Open the door! 

Love is a hungry wolf at the door 
Love is, love is a filthy fucking whore 
Love is waiting way out in the cold all alone 
Love is freely giving something pure 
Love is not a damn thing you can hold and feel warm 
Love is a nightmare, kid, and you'll be screaming wanting more 
Open the door! 
Open the door!
