I love this song. And I actually got to speak to Kevin Kirkwood (singer in the band obviously), which was.. amazing.. I always feel odd when I talk to an actual author or a musical artist..
"Kerosene" - The Vanished
I need a new skin, an enemy to call a friend
Just to lie one more time
To steal my heart away, everything will be okay
Nothing tastes quite like denial
[Pre-Chorus]
And I've got nothing to lose, it's colored like a bruise
The way you left me
And I've got nothing to hide, it died inside
The way it should be
[Chorus]
I'm sorry I didn't smile today, my house is on fire again
So bring to me kerosene, my house is on fire again
I fake one more smile, the plastic one I've worn for miles
Just to keep wearing the crown
And crack one more joke, laugh 'till I almost choked
'Till nothing tastes quite like denial
[Pre-Chorus + Chorus]
Kerosene
My house is on fire again
Kerosene, -sene..
My house is on fire again
[Chorus x2]

I can't even begin to explain the magical quality of this song.. or any of their songs for that matter.. It's short but it's lovely, I love the lilting melody of the combination of Sherri and Stacy's voices..
"Vintage People" - Eisley
I have laughed up galaxies hats and glasses
but I've never met anyone quite like you
I've met vintage people
who boast of shipwrecks and bravery
but I've never met someone quite like you
You can take me away from here
And do you remember how it was when
We were fascinators sneaking glances?
Do you remember how it was oh all night
While I sang my song, till our songs were done?
All the people gathered to watch you smile
And take photographs for remembrance
Could they testify with experience they would find that
They’ve never met someone quite like you
You can take me away from here
And do you remember how it was when
We were fascinators sneaking glances?
Do you remember how it was oh all night
While I sang my song, till our songs were done?
And do you remember how it was when
We were fascinators sneaking glances?
Do you remember how it was oh all night
While I sang my song, till our songs were done?
And it’s just nice to be near you
Till the sun breaks our city street through
"Kerosene" - The Vanished
I need a new skin, an enemy to call a friend
Just to lie one more time
To steal my heart away, everything will be okay
Nothing tastes quite like denial
[Pre-Chorus]
And I've got nothing to lose, it's colored like a bruise
The way you left me
And I've got nothing to hide, it died inside
The way it should be
[Chorus]
I'm sorry I didn't smile today, my house is on fire again
So bring to me kerosene, my house is on fire again
I fake one more smile, the plastic one I've worn for miles
Just to keep wearing the crown
And crack one more joke, laugh 'till I almost choked
'Till nothing tastes quite like denial
[Pre-Chorus + Chorus]
Kerosene
My house is on fire again
Kerosene, -sene..
My house is on fire again
