Lyrics Fire Escape - Andrew McMahon In the Wilderness

Uh-oh, uh-oh-oh-oh
Uh-oh, uh-oh-oh-oh

I met up with an acrobat
In Brooklyn or some place like that
With life and taxis flying past
We tore that dance hall down

Uh-oh, uh-oh-oh-oh
Uh-oh, uh-oh-oh-oh

Pocket change and subway cars
And our big ideas filled empty bars
We might be from the moon or Mars
Either way, I′m never going home

Uh-oh, uh-oh-oh-oh
Uh-oh, uh-oh-oh-oh

So lets hang an anchor from the sun
There's a million city lights
But you′re number one
You're the reason I'm still up at dawn
Just to see your face
We′ll be going strong, with the vampires, baby
We belong, we belong awake

Swinging from the fire escape
Uh-oh, uh-oh-oh-oh

I was drinking from the wishing well
Some junkie metal-head hotel
When we boarded the carousel
The roof was caving in

Uh-oh, uh-oh-oh-oh
Uh-oh, uh-oh-oh-oh

And on the stage, my oxblood friend
Was singing songs about the end
The bankers in the lion′s den
They're dropping lines like beggers in the snow

Uh-oh, uh-oh-oh-oh
Uh-oh, uh-oh-oh-oh

So lets hang an anchor from the sun
There′s a million city lights
But you're number one
You′re the reason I'm still up at dawn
Just to see your face
We′ll be going strong, with the vampires, baby
We belong, we belong awake

Swinging from the fire escape
Uh-oh, uh-oh-oh-oh
Swinging from the fire escape
Uh-oh, uh-oh-oh-oh
Swinging from the fire escape

Walking home, your hand in mine
Tattoos on the river line
The morning birds are taking flight
Either way, I thought that you should know

You're my number one
You're the reason I′m still up at dawn
Just to see your face
We′ll be going strong, with the vampires, baby
We belong, we belong awake

Your're my number one
You′re the reason I'm still up at dawn
Just to see your face
We′ll be going strong, with the vampires, baby
We belong, we belong awake

Swinging from the fire escape
Uh-oh, uh-oh-oh-oh
Swinging from the fire escape
Uh-oh, uh-oh-oh-oh
Swinging from the fire escape
Uh-oh, uh-oh-oh-oh
Swinging from the fire escape
Uh-oh, uh-oh-oh-oh
