Discord: mbs_studiomode © MYBRIGHTESTSIDE [Intro] [dark atmosphere, distant female vocal, vinyl texture] I thought I'd lose you Still knew I'd find you Funny how the heart knows before the mind does [chopped vocal] Fire Firebird Come back [Verse 1] I carried your name like a grudge on my tongue Missing you while shutting you out Pride a deadbolt, heart a runaway Too much static to hear you through If you meant nothing I'd have let you fade But I fought you like somebody I was terrified to lose Even when I couldn't say it right Months went quiet Still you stayed Somewhere underneath the static Somewhere underneath the rage I hated how much I missed you That's how I knew it wasn't hate [Pre Chorus] We aimed wrong We burned bright Two good souls on the same bad night No goodbye could kill the wire We were never enemies Just friendly fire [Chorus] Friendly fire Friendly fire We hurt where we were trying to hold Burned the bridge but never let go Friendly fire Still alive Different worlds Same wavelength A thousand miles I still feel your light You stayed in my mind I stayed in yours And somehow somehow we survived [Drop] [chopped vocals] I missed you I missed you Firebird Come back Come back Friendly fire I love you [heavy phonk drop, distorted cowbells, melodic synth lead] [Verse 2] You said my presence comforts your soul Those words went straight through bone You called me Firebird I called you home Not possession Not romance alone Something stranger Something true A frequency in me that sounds like you A friend A brother A soul I know A kind of love that needs no role We could sit somewhere someday Laugh until the coffee's cold And I'd know that energy before you ever said hello [Pre Chorus] You saw my flaws You stayed kind You saw the wreckage behind my pride And when I couldn't forgive myself you said the hardest thing You have to try [Chorus] Friendly fire Friendly fire We hurt where we were trying to hold Burned the bridge but never let go Friendly fire Still alive Different worlds Same wavelength A thousand miles I still feel your light You stayed in my mind I stayed in yours And somehow somehow we survived [Breakdown] [beat disappears, intimate female vocal] I never deleted anything from you Not the words Not the music Not the stupid little things Not the part of me that knew we hadn't seen the last of us I didn't know when I didn't know how I just knew [soft male vocal sample] I'll be here [Bridge] Maybe love is not a promise Maybe love is recognizing someone's frequency through silence someone's soul across the distance Maybe some people leave a mark too deep for anger to erase And time doesn't make us strangers It shows us what mattered in the first place [Build] You made my day You comfort my soul You enrich my life It's good to know you're here [chopped vocal accelerating] Here Here Here Here [Final Chorus] Friendly fire Friendly fire We lost some time We didn't lose the light Friendly fire Now I know Some souls leave but never really go A thousand miles and I still feel you close No perfect words No perfect lives Just two stubborn souls still tuned to the same signal Friendly fire No enemy lines If I had to lose you to understand your place in my life Then let the past burn out tonight Because you're here And I'm here And we're alright [Final Drop] Firebird Same wavelength I missed you
