Shower in the dark day

 Clean sparks driving down

 Cool in the waterway

 Where the baptized drown

 Naked in the cold sun

 Breathing life like fire

 I thought I was the only one

 But that was just a lie

 Cause I heard it in the wind

 And I saw it in the sky

 I thought it was the end

 I thought it was the 4th of July

 

 Pale in the flare light

 The scared light cracks & disappears

 And leads the scorched ones here

 And everywhere

 No one cares the fire is spreading

 No one wants

 to speak about it

 Down in the hole

 Jesus tries to crack a smile

 Beneath another shovel load

 And I heard it in the wind

 And I saw it in the sky

 And I thought it was the end

 I thought it was the 4th of July

 Heard it in the wind

 And I saw it in the sky

 And I thought it was the end

 I thought it was the 4th of July

 

 July...

 July...

 

 Now I'm in control

 Now I'm in the fall out

 Once asleep but now I stand

 And I still remember your sweet

 Everything

 Light a Roman candle

 And hold it in your hand

 Cause I heard it in the wind

 And I saw it in the sky

 And I thought it was the end

 I thought it was the 4th of July

 Heard it in the wind

 And I saw it in the sky

 And I thought it was the end

 Thought it was the 4th of July
