[Verse 1] Smoke in my rearview Ash on my tongue Foot to the floor Heart coming undone Phone on the dash Buzzing like a hornet Your name lights up And I just ignore it [Chorus] I’ve been running from the fire I’ve been choking on the spark Every mile that I get higher Leaves a shadow in the dark If I turn around I’ll burn If I stay I just expire So I’m driving through the night Still running from the fire (still running, still running) [Verse 2] Backseat box With the letters you wrote Corners all curled From the rain and the smoke I swore I’d stay Then the flames kissed the door Couldn’t save us both So I saved my remorse [Chorus] I’ve been running from the fire I’ve been choking on the spark Every mile that I get higher Leaves a shadow in the dark If I turn around I’ll burn If I stay I just expire So I’m driving through the night Still running from the fire (still running, still running) [Bridge] Tell me Is it courage If I circle back again Or am I just a coward Learning how to pretend I see the glow behind me Bleeding through the sky Some homes have to vanish Just to keep you alive [Chorus] I’ve been running from the fire I’ve been choking on the spark Every mile that I get higher Leaves a shadow in the dark If I turn around I’ll burn If I stay I just expire So I’m driving through the night Still running from the fire (still running, still running) Still running from the fire
