[Verse 1]
Like the sound of thousands running
We didn't have time to be terrified
And all the soldiers' eyes, they were looking right through us
That's the day when something in us died

[Pre-Chorus]
The kiss of death comes to you
Soft and wet and see through
And you never knew
The moment that you died
Your eyes screamed like a beacon fire
I'm grit and wire by your side
And the face of death
Looks just like being satisfied

[Verse 2]
Will we meet again?
Here we are between a laugh now and a cry
Piercing clear and piercing true
All that time has done to you
I hope you find something you remember

[Chorus]
So light
You are the magic in the ashes
Strike the matches light it up
So light
Your face in me
So let me see you light it up, oh light it up
And let it burn

[Verse 3]
A window seat before the shut down
36,000 feet above the ground
Done a thousand laps around the world now
But I never stopped to see it, no I never looked around

[Pre-Chorus]
The kiss of death comes to you
Soft and wet and see through
And you never knew
The moment that you died
But the ocean and the stars blue
Set something in the laws
That blasts this summer's head in
And fills us with delight

[Chorus]
So light
You are the magic in the ashes
Strike the matches light it up
So light
Your face in me
So let me see you light it up, oh light it up
And let it burn, oh
And let it burn, oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh

Third Eye Blind from San Francisco Mission District Mostly guitars with other things knocking around Riffs and deep beats Lyrics are expanded in a kinda hip hop way That wrong thing you’re not supposed to say- we say it Black on Black pretty much from the beginning It took us so long to get things this way but it really feels like we are underway now Jacked on coffee we are a fabulously disorganized bunch We seek impact with friends try to surf whenever we can dirty jokes looking out for each other we have eyes and a voice so no surprise when we speak the fuck up We care about shit No sequencers no backing tracks not a DJ group We believe in the gathering power of music Guess you could say we are a motherfucking rock band Born in shadow, made of lions, loud as fuck
