jonah taylor - rescue fire lyrics

[verse 1]
twelve of us on an island, no one’s home
how we landed, how it happened, no one knows
hope for the best but fear the worst
they say
we’ll be rescued someday soon, so first

[chorus]
find some branches, grab some leaves
meet at the base of the tallest tree
if our rescue don’t come soon
we’ll try to use light from the sky and noon, too
build a fire, smoke grows higher
if we’re to return to our hometown
wе’ll sit and wait ’til our rescue fire
burns right to thе ground
[verse 2]
i tried to find some water, find some fruit
do all i could do
and day after day, my fellow castaways
waited on our rescue
’til one by one ten mothers’ sons
used the last breath they ever drew
to say goodbye
to the smoky skies
while the fire grew and grew

[post+chorus]
there was nothing to but wait
there was nothing that we could do
there was nothing to but wait
there was nothing that we could do
there was nothing to but wait
there was nothing that we could do
[bridge]
when the captain came, i heard him say
“it’s been empty here for years”
footprints on the shore and the fire’s still warm
but it seems there’s no one here
and when i caught his eye, i began to cry
and my hands started to shake
i said “the fire was great, but by the time you came
there was some it couldn’t save”

[chorus]
find some branches, grab some leaves
meet at the base of the tallest tree
if our rescue don’t come soon
we’ll try to use light from the sky and noon, too
build a fire, smoke grows higher
if we’re to return to our hometown
we’ll sit and wait ’til our rescue fire
burns right to the ground
we’ll sit and wait as our rescue fire
burns right to the ground
we’ll sit and wait as our rescue fire
burns us to the ground
