[Verse 1 – Girl]
You always show up like a storm I knew was coming,
Clouds in your eyes, but you swear you’re fine,
You kiss like a promise you don’t plan on keeping,
And I pretend I don’t read the signs.
You say I push you, say I twist every word,
Like I don’t hear the things you don’t say,
But silence cuts louder than anything spoken,
And you walk while I’m begging you to stay.
[Verse 2 – Guy]
You act like a saint with your hands full of matches,
Lighting me up just to watch me burn,
You pull me close when you feel me slipping,
Then punish me hard when I don’t return.
You say I’m cold, say I don’t ever fight fair,
Like you don’t swing below the line,
We keep score like it’s some kind of war zone,
But neither of us wants to win this time.
⸻
[Pre-Chorus – Both, overlapping]
Girl: You break me down just to hold me tighter
Guy: You push me out then you drag me back
Girl: I hate the way that I need your chaos
Guy: I hate the peace that we both lack
⸻
[Chorus – Both]
We’re gasoline, we’re a spark in the dark,
Every touch just tears us apart,
We know better, but we don’t care,
We’re choking on love and poisoned air.
We’re screaming truths we don’t wanna hear,
Drowning in words that cut too clear,
If we go down, we’ll go as one,
Two matchstick hearts in a house undone.
⸻
[Verse 3 – Girl]
I memorize every line that you cross,
Every apology dressed like a lie,
You say you’ll change when I’m halfway leaving,
And I believe it every time.
I know your patterns, your cracks, your edges,
Where you fold and where you attack,
But knowing you doesn’t make this safer,
It just makes it harder to step back.
[Verse 4 – Guy]
You wear your pain like it proves you’re right,
Like scars are some kind of crown,
You tell me I’m the one who’s breaking you,
But you’re the one who won’t put it down.
I try to leave, but you say my name
Like it’s something I owe to you,
And I hate myself for turning around
Every damn time you do.
⸻
[Bridge – Back and Forth, raw and messy]
Girl: Why do you stay if I’m killing you slowly?
Guy: Why do you beg if you want me gone?
Girl: You’re the one who keeps pulling me under
Guy: You’re the reason I hold on
Girl: You twist it, you always twist it—
Guy: You start it, don’t act so clean—
Girl: I’m tired of being your villain—
Guy: I’m tired of your in-between
Girl: Then leave.
Guy: Then let me.
Girl: I tried.
Guy: You didn’t.
Girl: You came back.
Guy: You called me.
(Both, quieter)
Girl: …we’re both liars
Guy: …yeah, we are
⸻
[Break – Soft, almost empty]
Girl: I don’t know who I am without this
Guy: I don’t know where I go
Girl: We’re a habit dressed up as love
Guy: And neither of us lets go
[Final Chorus – Both, bigger, unraveling]
We’re gasoline, we’re a spark in the dark,
Every kiss leaves another mark,
We see the flames but we stay right here,
Addicted to the smoke and fear.
We’re saying things we can’t take back,
Walking a broken, burning track,
If this is hell, then we chose the flame,
And I’d still call out your name
