Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Sand in my teeth
Smoke in my lungs
Counting the cracks
On a blown-out wall
You cracked a joke
Just to make me breathe
Said
“If we’re afraid
We still go
That’s all”
I had your name
Written on my hand
Thought it was luck
Till I saw you fall
Now every door slam
Every car backfire
Turns this quiet street
Into that night again
[Chorus]
We were brothers in the fire
Running through the thunder
Hearts too young
Too wired
To ever think we’d break
Now I’m standing in the mirror
And I can’t find who I was
But I still hear you calling
“Hold the line
Don’t shake”
Brothers in the fire
(we burned so bright)
Brothers in the fire
Still holding you inside
[Verse 2]
Wake up at six
Face on the floor
Shaking from dreams
That feel too real
Coffee goes cold
While I count the doors
Windows
Exits
Nothing ever still
I lost my laugh
Somewhere in the blast
Lose whole hours
Staring at my hands
But I remember
How you grabbed my vest
“Go on ahead
I’ll be right behind
Man”
[Chorus]
We were brothers in the fire
Running through the thunder
Hearts too young
Too wired
To ever think we’d break
Now I’m standing in the mirror
And I can’t find who I was
But I still hear you calling
“Hold the line
Don’t shake”
Brothers in the fire
(we burned so bright)
Brothers in the fire
Still holding you inside
[Bridge]
I’m learning how to breathe
Through the flash and the roar
I talk about you now
Name carved into my door
Courage isn’t steel
It’s shaking and you stay
I carry what we saw
And I walk out anyway
(yeah, I walk out anyway)
[Chorus]
We were brothers in the fire
Running through the thunder
Hearts too young
Too wired
To ever think we’d break
Now I’m standing in the mirror
And I’m finding who I am
Every scar another verse
Of the promise that we made
Brothers in the fire
(you’re by my side)
Brothers in the fire
I keep you in the light
