Lyrics
[Verse 1 – Male]
I crack like dry wood in August
One hard word, I’m gone
I strike the match in my own hands
Watch my bridges burn at dawn
Been called a walking warning
"Boy, you run too hot"
Tried cooling down with distance
But the sparks just never stop
[Verse 2 – Female]
You’re pacing holes in the hardwood
Like a storm stuck in the hall
Your breath comes out like thunder
You’re braced to break the wall
But I’ve seen past all that pressure
Past the smoke around your eyes
Underneath the angry cinders
There’s a boy who’s scared to cry
[Chorus – Both]
You’re fire when you fall
I’m the water on the wall
You’re the spark that scares you too
I’m the rain that runs to you
We’re wrong on paper, right in pain
Like August heat and freezing rain
Falling in love through the crash and the clash
You’re the wildfire, I’m the ash
Yin and yang in a small-town sky
Burn and melt and still survive
[Verse 3 – Male]
You touch my wrist, I stop shaking
Like you flipped some secret switch (yeah)
The rage goes out like porch lights
In a one-street, sleeping ditch
I hate the way I go missing
Inside the smoke I make
But you pull me back to breathing
On every tidal wave I fake
[Pre-Chorus – Female]
I’m not here to fix you
Just to stand where others ran
You’re not here to break me
Just to hold my shaking hands (mm)
[Chorus – Both]
You’re fire when you fall
I’m the water on the wall
You’re the spark that scares you too
I’m the rain that runs to you
We’re wrong on paper, right in pain
Like August heat and freezing rain
Falling in love through the crash and the clash
You’re the wildfire, I’m the ash
Yin and yang in a small-town sky
Burn and melt and still survive (oh)
[Bridge – Duet]
[Soft guitar, then build]
(Male) I’ve burned every good thing down
(Female) I’ve froze every feeling out
(Male) But you stayed through the smoke and sound
(Female) And you thawed every doubt
(Male) So if I flare, don’t let me run
(Female) If I go cold, just call my name
(Both) We’re a mess, but we’re the one
Kind of beautiful, dangerous, same
[Chorus – Both]
You’re fire when you fall
I’m the water on the wall
You’re the spark that scares you too
I’m the rain that runs to you (runs to you)
We’re wrong on paper, right in pain
Like August heat and freezing rain
Falling in love in the smoke and the ice
Burning alive, making something nice
You’re the wildfire in my eyes
I’m the hands that hold the sky
[Outro – Female & Male]
(Female) When you burn, I’ll stay
(Male) When you shake, I’ll stay
(Female) When I freeze, don’t walk away
(Both) Fire and ice in the same old town
Somehow we both calm down
