[Verse 1]
It was an easy sell
It was something else for us to do
Just one match to use
We used to hang out
Beside the park
We used to fall apart
And look for something new
[Chorus]
The brightest thing I ever saw
Was the night that you set fire to the lot
The night you set the fire
[Verse 2]
There was a way out
Across the road
Across the fields
To a place that we could feel
It wasn't hard to get to
It wasn't far apart
And it was at the start of the end of town
[Chorus]
The brightest thing I ever saw
Was the night that you set fire to the lot
We watched it burn until we were caught
The night you set the fire
[Instrumental]
[Chorus]
The brightest thing I ever saw
Was the night that you set fire to the lot
We watched it burn until we were caught
The night you set the fire
