Fault Line (Version 2) — Nova & Fenwick

Verse

Nineteen summers on a borrowed bike frame

Chalk dust riding where the asphalt bends

We chased the sunset down an empty lane

Racing shadows that the light could lend

You said I'm faster than you'll ever be

I said that's what makes the whole ride free

Pre-Chorus

So why do we slow down when it gets too real?

Why do we hide behind a wall instead of steel?

Some things were meant to crash, to break and burn

Chorus

It's a fault line running right through our skin

The current's calling but we can't let go within

Every scar is proof that something broke through

We'll ride the tide until the morning breaks through

Verse 2

Ten years later on the same cracked street light

You called me up saying you're leaving tonight

Said the same old road got too familiar, got stale

I said drive it slow then because the view can't fail

Pre-Chorus

So why do we run when everything feels right?

Why do we bury what could burn like a fire that's bright?

Some things were meant to crash, to break and burn

Chorus

It's a fault line running right through our skin

The current's calling but we can't let go within

Every scar is proof that something broke through

We'll ride the tide until the morning breaks through

Bridge

Maybe breaking means you finally heal

Outro

So turn it up loud and drive it slow

Watch the horizon, watch the gold
