this is not the way i saw anything happening    i'm only older, screaming over destiny tonight    don't hear my laugh echoing through your jealousy    i just hear my voice, i just hear my voice       this is not the way i saw anything happening    we spent our summers hanging under flickering street lights    nowadays there's nothing on the radio    i just hear your voice, i just hear your voice       come on and jump in the fire, the first ones on me    feel the burn of missing ever opportunity    if you stand the heat we can play loud enough you'll agree    you haven't seen the last of me       i'd send my best if you would ever call me back    i made friends with snakes then i made love to my disguise    i don't have a chance, this song and dance will bury me    i don't have a choice, i don't have a choice       not selling movie rights so think again    not selling anything tonight    this whole place is filled with ornaments    hollowed out and made to shine    if certainty is what you make of this    i certainly won't make believe    the calm before the storm is running strong    i just hear my voice, i just hear my voice       come on and jump in the fire, the first ones on me    feel the burn of missing ever opportunity    if you stand the heat we can play loud enough you'll agree    play loud enough    come on and jump in the fire, the first ones on me    feel the burn of missing ever opportunity    if you stand the heat we can play hard enough you'll agree    you'll never see the last of me
