Fireproof and Falling

Intro

Streetlights flicker like a held breath

Engine coughing, but it won't quit yet

We're the sparks nobody thought would catch

Come on, closer, strike the match

Verse

Torn-up jacket, borrowed shoes

Counting exits, nothing left to lose

Every gauge is running on empty red

But we're still moving, still ahead

Rearview mirror full of doubt

Every voice that said we'd never get out

Static crackling on the radio dial

Six more towns and maybe a mile

Cracked windshield catching the dawn

Every warning sign we've driven on

Held together with tape and nerve

Taking every hairpin curve

They said the bridge was too far gone

We're already halfway on

Wheels spinning, sparks like rain

We were built to outrun the pain

Chorus

We're fireproof and falling

Straight through the smoke, still calling

Every wall they built, we're crawling

Over, under, through

Fireproof and falling

Nothing left but forward, hauling

Every no they kept installing

Didn't know what we could do

Verse

Boarded windows, borrowed time

Chalk outline of a life not mine

Every ledger says we're in the red

But the numbers never got in our head

Thunderclouds above the yard

Doesn't matter, we hit it hard

Broken compass, busted map

Still we found the open gap

Coach said quit before we tried

We just laughed and stepped outside

Every door they slammed on tight

We kicked it open, held the light

Empty tank but full of nerve

Every hairpin, every curve

Let them count us out again

We're the fire they can't pretend

Chorus

We're fireproof and falling

Straight through the smoke, still calling

Every wall they built, we're crawling

Over, under, through

Fireproof and falling

Nothing left but forward, hauling

Every no they kept installing

Didn't know what we could do

Bridge

Maybe we were never meant to land soft

Maybe grace looks like a burning cost

Every scar's a map of how we survived

Every fall's a proof that we're alive

So let it hurt, let it show

We're not asking permission to go

Outro

Fireproof and falling, still calling

Fireproof and falling, we're still here

Every wall they built, we're crawling

Over, under, through the fear

Fireproof and falling

That's who we are
