Ignition Line Riot

Verse

Packed my bag before the sun even tries

Left your hoodie folded, no long goodbyes

Track lights flicker on an empty lane

Lacing up like I'm outrunning the pain

Chalk dust settles on the starting block

Photograph of us stopped like a broken clock

Stopwatch ticking like a heartbeat drum

Something's ending but something's just begun

Pre-Chorus

Can you hear the gun about to fire

Every breath is climbing higher

Loss and hope tangled in my chest

Tell me this ain't the end, it's just the test

Chorus

This is my ignition line riot

Engines roar where the silence used to be

Every ache turns to fire when I try it

Ignition line riot, setting me free

Sparks off the pavement, tears turn electric

Ignition line riot, watch me leave

Goodbye was just the spark that lit it

Ignition line riot, I believe

Verse

Two months down the road, the blisters healed

Every mile I ran taught me how to feel

Old photograph traded for a finish tape

New skyline blinking, I'm rewriting shape

Crowd noise crashing like a stadium wave

Your name's an echo, but it don't enslave

I hear the starting gun in my own chest

Turns out the ending was the greatest test

Pre-Chorus

Can you hear the gun about to fire

Every breath is climbing higher

Fear and hope collide like steel

Tell me this rush is finally real

Chorus

This is my ignition line riot

Engines roar where the silence used to be

Every ache turns to fire when I try it

Ignition line riot, setting me free

Sparks off the pavement, tears turn electric

Ignition line riot, watch me leave

Goodbye was just the spark that lit it

Ignition line riot, I believe

Bridge

Maybe leaving was the only way to run

Maybe every ending starts an unsung sun

I'm not scared of empty lanes no more

I'm the fire that walked out that door

Every mile you're further, I'm closer to the light

Trading all my shadows for a brand new stride

Chorus

This is my ignition line riot

Engines roar where the silence used to be

Every ache turns to fire when I try it

Ignition line riot, setting me free

Sparks off the pavement, tears turn electric

Ignition line riot, watch me leave

Goodbye was just the spark that lit it

Ignition line riot, I believe
