[Verse 1] We were seventeen and running out of time Chasing broken dreams beneath the powerlines We burned so bright and disappeared too soon [Chorus] We were alive, we were alive Screaming at the sky on the edge of July We were on fire, we were on fire Now I'm just ash and a fading summer night [Verse 2] The parking lot we claimed as our own Is just concrete now, we're already gone A ghost of your voice I can't replace [Chorus] We were alive, we were alive Screaming at the sky on the edge of July We were on fire, we were on fire Now I'm just ash and a fading summer night [Bridge] Some things only burn When you leave them behind [Outro] We were alive, we were alive I'd burn it all again just to feel that summer light
