Fireworks

[Verse 1]
All these love songs
Love songs might be no good for me
Keep on sellin' the dream
I wonder, how long?
How long will I wait to be happy?
All my friends ask me

[Pre-Chorus]
When am I gonna be settled down?
Buy a house, stay in town?
Like it's easy, like people on TV
I don't wanna just settle now
Put my fire underground
Just 'cause it's easy, oh
Honey, believe me

[Chorus]
I wish I could just flip a switch
And just accept your kind of muted bliss
'Cause I don't wanna be holdin' out forever
Oh, and if my type is just fireworks
An act of faith, even though it hurts
To shut that door, am I holdin' out forever?

[Verse 2]
What if I'm wrong?
Wrong to think there's more to this story
My heart pounds and they know me
Am I headstrong?
Or foolish every night waiting for lightning to strike
While you've got blue skies?

[Chorus]
Oh, I wish I could just flip a switch
And just accept your kind of muted bliss
'Cause I don't wanna be holdin' out forever
Oh, and if my type is just fireworks
An act of faith, even though it hurts
To shut that door, am I holdin' out forever?
Am I holdin' out forever?

[Pre-Chorus]
When am I gonna be settled down?
Buy a house, stay in town?
Like it's easy, like people on TV
I don't wanna just settle now
Put my fire underground
Just 'cause it's easy, oh
Honey, believe me

[Chorus]
I wish I could just flip a switch
And just accept your kind of muted bliss
'Cause I don't wanna be holdin' out forever
Oh, and if my type is just fireworks
An act of faith, even though it hurts
To shut that door, am I holdin' out forever?
Am I holdin' out forever?
