Fault Line Lights

Verse

Concrete cracks beneath my boots again

Same four corners I've been breaking out of

Somebody's radio echoes down the street

Every door I'm holding by a thread

Pre-Chorus

I can feel it pulling loose now

Gravity is running through my chest

Tell me how long we have before this breaks us twice

Before every inch turns into just the distance

Chorus

We're the fault line, shaking under our feet tonight

Every spark that lights won't last as long as the fight

I can see it building right below where we stand

Fault line lights burning out in my hands

Verse 2

Somebody's laughing somewhere far down the block

Windows fogging up but I don't turn back home

I'm the wire, you're the current that won't let me go

Every second the room gets smaller still

I know this isn't forever — it's just a fuse we light on the wall tonight

Pre-Chorus

I can feel it pulling loose now

Gravity is running through my chest

Tell me how long we have before this breaks us twice

Before every inch turns into just the distance

Chorus

We're the fault line, shaking under our feet tonight

Every spark that lights won't last as long as the fight

I can see it building right below where we stand

Fault line lights burning out in my hands

Bridge

Maybe I'm not scared — maybe this is what it's supposed to feel like

Ripping every anchor loose so I don't drown tonight

No more waiting for permission from a door

Let the whole town catch up, let them watch us burn once more

Chorus

We're the fault line, shaking under our feet tonight

Every spark that lights won't last as long as the fight

I can see it building right below where we stand

Fault line lights burning out in my hands
