4th of July



4th of July (song)

She comes like 4th of July
She’s brilliant colours
In a burned out sky
Rockets in the night
See the stars collide
Explode in her eyes
She’s the promise of a politician
She lets me down
Then takes me high

She unfolds the night
Turns a sunrise into twilight
She pulls my string
She spins me around
I’m hanging by a thread
Wrapped around her finger
She drops me to the ground
Pick me up in broken pieces

I need your love…
I need your love…
I need your love…
At the break of day
In the blackest night
I need your love

She buried her treasure
She’s plundered gold
She’s like a desert breeze
She comes and goes
She’s a storm raging through my heart
She makes me weep like a willow
She turns me away

She’s the needle in my vein
She’s a fever burning through my brain
She makes me hurt
I’m an addict to her pain
She’s a vision
Leading me down a narrow path
I can’t walk
She leaves me lame

I need your love…
I need your love…
I need your love…
At the break of day
In the blackest night
I need your love

 She’s a pale moon
In a night of blindness
She eclipses everything I see
She’s deception
With eyes of truth
She’s desire
In a town full of thieves
She’s holiness
In the house of corruption
She’s everything I want
And the one thing that I need

I need your love…
I need your love…
I need your love…
At the break of day
In the blackest night
I need your love

She sends me out of control
I need her soul
Make my heart bleed
Make me bleed
I need her speed
Higher…faster
Take everything
Take everything from me

I need your love…
I need your love…
I need your love…

  1. This started as a poem. Although it doesn't have typical song structure it is pure rock n roll.
