Dancing on a Fault Line

We’re dancing on a fault line, laughing way too loud

Picture frames are shaking, but we’re proud of it now

Everybody says, “Careful, you don’t know what’s below”

But I’ve never trusted calm, and you already know

They put up signs that say keep your distance, don’t stay too long

But I don’t mind the warning if the view is this strong

They say Yellowstone might blow someday, nobody really knows

Could be a thousand years away or tomorrow when it goes

But if the world is holding its breath underneath that ground

Then baby let’s explode with love, let’s be the loudest sound

Steam is rising from the sidewalks when you say my name

Every look you give me feels a little uncontained

We could play it safe, keep our feet on steady ground

But safe has never been the way we stick around

Pressure makes the earth shake, pressure makes it real

I don’t want a quiet love I barely feel

They say Yellowstone might blow someday, nobody really knows

Could be science fiction headlines or a footnote no one shows

But I don’t want a love that always plays it safe

If it’s gonna blow, let it glow, let it be beautiful

If this thing erupts, I hope they see it from the stars

All that heat and color lighting up who we are

I don’t need forever carved in granite or stone

Just give me now, give me sparks, give me something new

They don’t know when Yellowstone will lose control

They just know there’s fire in the center of it all

So if loving you is standing where the ground comes undone

Let it erupt, let it lift me, let it be legendary love
