Did you hear it last night over the hum of your AC?
It sounded like an ambulance was rushing,
playing a siren symphony.
There was a shoot and run on I-90,
I caught a bullet with your name,
and when the medics found me,
I was flat lining, DOA.

Last night I saw you,
like the devil in the desert
just as cruel and twice as clever
saying "you know you can't do better than me"
And I still adore you
you've been tearing up this room
like something wild on the loose, Cailin [pronounced Colleen].

Did you see it last night, the fire burning across town?
everyone just listened to their scanners
imagining what's burning down.
Did you see the smoke, hear the timbers howl
or wonder if I was safe?
Well I don't know who struck the spark,
but I know you fanned the flames.

Last night I saw you,
like the devil in the desert,
just as cruel and twice as clever,
saying, "you know you can't do better than me".
I still adore you,
though you've been tearing up this room
like something wild on the loose, Cailin [pronounced Colleen].

Last night I strapped myself with dynamite
under my tuxedo.
Outside the prom I drank a Jager bomb
and waited to explode.
My love for you has got a fuse
and it's been getting pretty low
I guess it's time that I got used to being here
but I can't get used to being alone.

Last night I saw you,
like the devil in the desert,
just as cruel and twice as clever,
saying, "you know you can't do better than me".
I still adore you,
though you've been tearing up this room
like something wild on the loose, Cailin [pronounced Colleen].
