Lyrics

Evacuate
Written by Lawrence Lewis / ASCAP

He wasn?t shallow, he wasn?t bad
You couldn?t tell but deep down he was sad
He sat inside his house he, he dreamt of light
If only he could put up the fight

He turned around and he shot his wife
At least he thought he finally did right
He went to church and he told the source
He called him down and he said it and more

Telling all but he wouldn?t cry
?cause he knows that?s what they do outside

that?s all he ever would be
that?s all he ever could be
that?s all he ever was to me
that?s all I ever want him to be

And then his house became something more
It was his safeguard it was his war
It was his heart and it was his soul
It hid her arms and it took it?s toll

And then the night it turned black and red
A fire flood of someone else?s threat
A sorry heat box of lies and mess
The smoke collapsing on her lovely dress

It?s okay
It?s all right
It?ll be okay
?cause I want to stay

chorus
home
he watched it burn (he watched it burn)
he felt it burn him to the ground
home
he felt it burn (he felt it burn)
burn him inside out

Evacuation it comes in twos
But only he was the one who could choose
His shelter gone and his skin drip dried
He couldn?t watch he just turned and died

chorus
