Fire Drill Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Delete your favourite line
Karma is a friend of mine
He won't say another word
Now it seems just so absurd

[Bridge]
To the end of time
I know
And it shows

[Verse 2]
Repeat your favourite rhyme
When I come around next time
And now it seems so far away
I really can't be arsed today

[Bridge Repeat]

[Chorus]
Cos this is like a fire drill
I really need to take my pills
Every time you disappear
I really need to hold you near

[Verse 3]
So now I know it's not my day
I wouldn't want it any other way
You enjoy just lying here
Really is just so unfair

[Bridge Repeat]

[Chorus Repeat]

[Chorus Repeat]
