Lyrics
A Fire Only We Know
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Only we know the quiet roads and the vacant malls
Or the cool of perfect darkness just outside the sprawl
Only we heard the drums pumping in the stadium
And built our truths like fires in the promised land where we come from
And when you look now in my eyes
Do you see the boy that swore on every inch of you
Our light would never die?
Is the bravery inside me
Still clinging to my clothes
Like smoke from a fire only we know?
Only we know how good your daddy’s records sound
Or just how far a fall it is from the window to the ground
Only we smell the rain just before it comes
And think first of each other every time we’re burned by love
When I look now in your eyes
I still see the thing that made us lions
The thing that made us free
Is the bravery inside you
Still clinging to your clothes
Like smoke from a fire only we know?
Like smoke
Like smoke
Like smoke
And when you look now in my eyes
Do you see the boy that swore on every inch of you
Our light would never die?
Is the bravery inside me
Still clinging to my clothes
Like smoke from a fire only we know?
