I was listening to this song just now and it made me think...

I said I'd walk you home after our third round of pouring whiskey down the barrel of our guts and I grabbed hold of your hand. We're up and we're out and we're yelling through the streets and I'm out of my fucking mind and I know you're next to me but I must confess what's in my head. Keep pumping now, legs to beat the ground, and our hearts to beat the band. The sky's on fire again. Run down this alleyway. Lightning bolts again and we become fireflies just flashing at the air. Rattle garbage cans. Prepare to be ravaged by our lust burning mad, the fire that we've become. And I know you're under me but I must confess what's in my head: To me you are the light from a light bulb that breaks sometimes and the tender warmth inside is released into my life and it smothers me in flames that lick and scorch my face. As the smoke reaches the sky know I'm burning tonight. Know I'm burning tonight. Know I'm burning tonight. Know I'm burning tonight. Know I'll burn for you tonight.

Okay so obviously that's Firefly by Saves the Day... I think this is one of my favorite songs off of Stay What You Are.

So as I was singing along tonight, I was thinking about the song lyrics and what they meant and damn Chris knows his shit. I mean he wrote this song about being drunk and sexing it up. With the lightbulb as a total metaphor. And you tell me I like shitty music "Go Go Go shorty it's your birthday" - Are you kidding me? Your music sucks! :) Anyway, yeah I just had to rant because I was listening to this and I think this is the best song about drunkeness and doing stupid things while you're drunk but underneath it all really being in love.

G fucking G Chris.
