There’s wood for the fire
But there’s no matches
No matches
Been here for awhile
But there’s no matches
No matches
Just fools on a wire
Balancing old and untried
So we will fall into the night
‘cause there’s no matches
No matches
Last night I closed my eyes
See my life flashing, flashing
Why am I so surprised
That it’s not lasting, lasting
I can’t make a sound
‘cause I have burned to the ground
Ashes and dust falling down
Among the old matches, old matches
Please wash the ashes away
You know I don’t like to beg
But give me a spark to cut the grey
‘cause there’s no matches
‘Cause there’s no matches
No more matches
No matches
But there’s no matches
No matches
Been here for awhile
But there’s no matches
No matches
Just fools on a wire
Balancing old and untried
So we will fall into the night
‘cause there’s no matches
No matches
Last night I closed my eyes
See my life flashing, flashing
Why am I so surprised
That it’s not lasting, lasting
I can’t make a sound
‘cause I have burned to the ground
Ashes and dust falling down
Among the old matches, old matches
Please wash the ashes away
You know I don’t like to beg
But give me a spark to cut the grey
‘cause there’s no matches
‘Cause there’s no matches
No more matches
No matches
