[Verse 1] Bare knees on the gravel Gum on my shoe Bike chain rattling Like I had things to do Screen door slammed shut Mom yelled my name I was halfway to nowhere Playing my own game [Pre-Chorus] Wood fence kingdom Nerf gun crown I built my whole world From the ground up now [Chorus] Backyard volcano Still burning bright Backyard volcano Made me who I am tonight We were wild, we were small We were louder than the wall Backyard volcano I can still feel it all [Verse 2] Hopscotch cracks in the sidewalk Skinned up and proud Saturday cartoons Too damn loud Dad in the driveway Oil on his hands I learned how to lose And stand back up again [Pre-Chorus] Summer came easy Winter was hard But I found a hero In a bent-up card [Chorus] Backyard volcano Still burning bright Backyard volcano Made me who I am tonight We were wild, we were small We were louder than the wall Backyard volcano I can still feel it all [Bridge] [Breakdown] Tell me you remember The dust and the heat The scrape of the chain-link The stomp of our feet I left those days behind me But they never left me They live in my hands In the scars they gave me [Chorus] Backyard volcano Still burning bright Backyard volcano Made me who I am tonight We were wild, we were small We were louder than the wall Backyard volcano I can still feel it all [Outro] Backyard volcano Yeah, I can still feel it all
