[Verse 1] Clock hits nine We slip outside Back door slam We duck and hide Smoke-stained hoodies Trembling hands Your chipped black nails trace escape plans [Pre-Chorus] Every hallway rumor Every sideways stare I feel them on my shoulder But your breath is in my hair (yeah) [Chorus] We kiss behind the bleachers like a crime scene Heartbeats hammer Red and gasoline If they drag us into daylight Let them see I would burn this whole town down Before I hide what you mean to me [Verse 2] Boot prints stamped in soggy sand Mascara storms on the back of your hand You say “If they find out We’re through” I say “If they cage us We’ll break through” (hey!) [Pre-Chorus] Every slammed door shaking Every whispered dare Let them watch us breaking We were never theirs to spare [Chorus] We kiss behind the bleachers like a crime scene Heartbeats hammer Red and gasoline If they drag us into daylight Let them see I would burn this whole town down Before I hide what you mean to me [Bridge] [Melodic guitar solo rides over a slow Pounding build] Your name carved deep in a splintered seat If this is wrong I won’t retreat Let them chase us Teeth and spite We found something worth the fight [Chorus] We kiss behind the bleachers like a crime scene Heartbeats hammer Red and gasoline If they drag us into daylight Let them see I would burn this whole town down Before I hide what you mean to me [Outro] [Drums thin out Guitars pulse on one chord] We’re not scared We’re not clean (We’re not scared) We’re obscene (We’re not leaving) We’re the risk We’re the flame (We’re the ones) Say my name Say my name [Chant Fading] Love like this Love like this Love like this Is worth the hit
