Fire Before The Break (versione 2)

Verse 1

Silver smoke on the rooftop line

You're watching me light up tonight

Four years built just to watch it fall apart at the seams

Still I'm moving like the whole night's mine

I know your eyes are already gone

Scanned me once, turned back on

But I don't need one look to own this floor alone

Pre-Chorus

You said you loved me before I was ready

Said you'd stay when the lights go steady

Now I'm not a girl and I know what's mine

Chorus

I burn before I break, baby

Watch it all come back in flames

Let me show you gold without the cost

Fire before the break

I burn before I break, baby

Burn before I break

(uh)

Verse 2

Your hands used to be the only light I'd seek

Now your shadow just a silhouette on the street

Every night feels like we're playing by different rules

You want a mirror of the girl you used to rule

I built my own sun now, no more asking why

No more needing permission from your tired eyes

This is every dream I never let go of yet

Standing right in front of it and it's still not done

Pre-Chorus

You said you loved me before I was ready

Said you'd stay when the lights go steady

Now I'm not a girl and I know what's mine

Chorus

I burn before I break, baby

Watch it all come back in flames

Let me show you gold without the cost

Fire before the break

I burn before I break, baby

Burn before I break

(uh)

Bridge

Maybe love was never just a flame that died

Maybe love's just learning how to live inside

So don't turn away
