Light the Fuse

Static on the wires, voices in the haze We're chasing down the truth in a crooked maze Shadows in the daylight, ghosts in the street Every step we take is another repeat I see the cracks in the mask you wear I taste the smoke in the midnight air You say we're fine, but the walls still shake We're just one push from the break And I can feel the pull like a riptide drag Every heartbeat hits like a red flag tag Light the fuse, let the night ignite We're built for the storm, not the quiet life Every scar's a map of where we've been burned We crash, we spin, but we never learn Throw me in the fire, let the embers fly If this is the fall, I'll learn to fly Light the fuse, we're alive tonight Steel in the veins, thunder in the chest We wear our pain like a battle crest Every wound's a song, every tear's a spark We're painting our names in the dark Your voice cuts sharp through the noise and din Like the first cold rush of the wind We're standing on the edge with no way back The sky turns red and the ground goes black And I can feel the pull like a riptide drag Every heartbeat hits like a red flag tag Light the fuse, let the night ignite We're built for the storm, not the quiet life Every scar's a map of where we've been burned We crash, we spin, but we never learn Throw me in the fire, let the embers fly If this is the fall, I'll learn to fly Light the fuse, we're alive tonight Light the fuse, let the night ignite We're built for the storm, not the quiet life Every scar's a map of where we've been burned We crash, we spin, but we never learn Throw me in the fire, let the embers fly If this is the fall, I'll learn to fly Light the fuse, we're alive tonight
