Signal to Burn (versione 2)

Verse

Salt air on the deck, the horizon's aflame

A spark catches my sleeve as the sun dips low

Your hand was a map I didn't ask to read

Now every shadow's got your name in it somehow

We were two ships, built for different seas

Masts collided where the current used to be

I never chose this war but here we are now

Burning bright together, drowning out the sound

Chorus

Signal to burn, signal to burn

Aboard with you is how I learn to fall in love again

Every spark we throw into the dark above

Finds its own return, finds its way home till dawn

Signal to burn, signal to burn

This wrecked ship of mine still carries a light on

It was never about the sinking, it was always how long

We stay lit before the tide comes back to town

Verse

Rust on the wheelhouse where your name got scratched in steel

Bones of ships we lost still bobbing beneath our feet

You said the ocean doesn't care whose fault the storm was made

Just that we're floating and we won't be saved the same

A flare across the water, one heartbeat through the wire

The whole world's listening like it wants to catch fire

I never asked for a rescue, I just asked for you

Not safe harbor — this — whatever this is moving through

Chorus

Signal to burn, signal to burn

Aboard with you is how I learn to fall in love again

Every spark we throw into the dark above

Finds its own return, finds its way home till dawn

Signal to burn, signal to burn

This wrecked ship of mine still carries a light on

It was never about the sinking, it was always how long

We stay lit before the tide comes back to town

Bridge

Maybe being lost is just a different kind of map

One that burns out fast but never looks back

No compass needed when you're holding my hand

This current's pulling harder than I understand

So we don't swim for shore — we ride this flame

Whatever the tide does next, we're already changed

Chorus

Signal to burn, signal to burn

Aboard with you is how I learn to fall in love again

Every spark we throw into the dark above

Finds its own return, finds its way home till dawn

Signal to burn, signal to burn

This wrecked ship of mine still carries a light on

It was never about the sinking, it was always how long

We stay lit before the tide comes back to town
