Lost in a Scent of Smoke（版本 2）

Intro

Three a.m., I'm stuck in the haze of smoke and flame

Every step feels like a memory trying to claim me back

The city's asleep but my head keeps spinning round

Verse 1

Fire alarm is blaring, sirens off on the block

I grab the flashlight from the kitchen drawer, lock the clock

Cousin says it's just a drill, that we don't need to run

But I know what smoke looks like, before it turns into sun

Every room in this apartment building's burning slow

Paint peels off the ceiling like it's shedding its skin to go

I'm not running out of time, I'm counting every second down

This is my grandfather teaching me how to move through the frown

Pre-Chorus

Is that fire or is that just the sky?

Is this a drill or am I saying goodbye?

Chorus

Lost in a scent of smoke and flame

Every step feels like it's burning my name

I don't know if we're getting out alive

Lost in a scent of smoke, can't deny that fire is high

Verse 2

Bailers are breaking through the door, neighbors yelling at the top

Fire department moving fast but I'm still standing on the step

Every window rattles like it's trying to shatter glass

I grab my mom's old coat and put it round my shoulders fast

We don't talk about what could happen, we just count every breath

Every second feels like a minute turning into death

Pre-Chorus

Is that fire or is that just the sky?

Is this a drill or am I saying goodbye?

Chorus

Lost in a scent of smoke and flame

Every step feels like it's burning my name

I don't know if we're getting out alive

Lost in a scent of smoke, can't deny that fire is high

Bridge

Maybe this isn't about surviving at all

Maybe this is just the only time I'll ever be small

The whole building's turning into embers and dust

But every step is still mine to trust

Chorus

Lost in a scent of smoke and flame

Every step feels like it's burning my name

I don't know if we're getting out alive

Lost in a scent of smoke, can't deny that fire is high

Outro

Firemen are here now, putting out the heat

I'm not running anymore, I've found my feet

Smoke still lingers but it's no longer burning slow

This time I know exactly which way to go
