EP: Fire Demos (2010)












Hello lyrics - Anderson East

Curb side seats
with my shadow to my feet.
Hello.

Paths seem to meet
where people greet and speak.
Hello

Why do I fight
when our eyes don’t meet quite right.
Hello

Why do I hide
behind some smile I left behind.
Hello

Why
do my colors fade?
Why
is it when the seasons change?
Why
am I just a shadow in the shade?
Why
can’t we stay to say…

So where were you going
in some kind of hurry?
Don’t you know if ran
you might get there a little faster.

Was time on your side
or were you letting it slip right by.
Hello
Your patterns are on display
behind the hand shake that you fake.
Hello

Why
do my colors fade?
Why
is it when the seasons change?
Why
am I just a shadow in the shade?
Why
can’t we stay to say hello.

Early October lyrics - Anderson East

Late night
early friday morning
the sun’s gonna be here soon.

Cold september
seasons are changing
and dawn is running straight through.

Counting down the hours,
glory days fading and
maybe now change could do her good.

Cause now my words seem to be falling a little deeper
than the way I use to keep them
and October is right outside my door.

She stands outside
with a suitcase under her arm
says she’s going up to Boston for the fall

Says she gonna be famous
while she stands beside a lamp post
just waiting for her bus to run.

She stands under her umbrella
just hiding from the weather
that could tear her world into.

Cause now my words seem to be falling a little deeper
than the way I use to keep them
and October is right outside my door

Reach You lyrics - Anderson East

Words too late,
won’t make you stay
or give us tomorrow or today.
our love has faded
away, it seems so strange
to have to let go too soon
and it’s true
that I still miss you.

You ain’t coming back.
No matter how hard I try.
And I can’t reach you.
Once you’ve made up your mind.

Time don’t change
days last for weeks
here alone.
The telephone
sends blurry signals of home
but you’re gone
and I can’t get over you.

You ain’t coming back.
No matter how hard I try.
And I can’t reach you.
Once you’ve made up your mind.
& I refuse to die here.
My friend its time to just move on.
& don’t let her see you crying.
there’s no use
when she’s made up her mind

Fire Song lyrics - Anderson East

Swiftly opened eyes discover sound
Fog rolls under the door, she needs to get out.

But her screams have no sound,
The alarm yells to loud.
She opens the blinds.

She be waiting for the fire to set her free.
She’s been calling, God rescue me.
Leaving hell come at such high degrees
She’s been waiting for the fire to set her free.

Well, she jumps out of her window and lands on both feet.
And the ringing of bells don’t seem to cease.

She looks back to see.
Smoke higher than trees,
and she smiles.

She be waiting for the fire to set her free.
She’s been calling, God rescue me.
Leaving hell come at such high degrees
She’s been waiting for the fire to set her free.

I'm Still Waiting lyrics - Anderson East

Lacking something,
too much nothing,
a house with walls
and nothing in it.

Queasy stomach,
cigarette butts,
burnt up post cards
and I’m sill waiting.

For you to come to my rescue
and save me from myself.
To shake the dust off my windows
so I can see something else

Wounds untended,
hate still pending,
don’t test me
cause I’m liable to break out.

Overwhelmed by
reckless action
but no one’s perfect
but I’m still waiting.

For you to come to my rescue
and save me from myself.
To shake the dust off my windows
so I can see something else

Cause I’m trying my hardest
but theres only so much a man can take
they say time can mend anything
but how long do I have to wait?

For you to come to my rescue
and save me from myself.
To shake the dust off my windows
so I can see something else

Bone Dry lyrics - Anderson East

Lonely as I sit
broke down off the highway.
Cars they sweep beside me,
on damp asphalt.
and I’m not sure where to go
I sit with the radio on.
& light a smoke.

Cause’ helplessness overwhelms us.
It’s out of my hands
I’m enclosed in a tin can
that ran bone dry.

Well, I suppose today ain’t my day.
Between the sheets I should have stayed
back in Alabama.
Oh, how the winter chill greets
the warmth beneath
my rain coat.

Cause’ helplessness overwhelms us.
It’s out of my hands
I’m enclosed in a tin can
that ran bone dry.
