Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Red in the windows
Smoke in my hair
We said it was a game
We didn’t play fair
Laughed while it crackled
Heat on our skin
Someone said
“Run now”
But we stayed in
[Chorus]
The fire didn’t end when the house went dark
I still hear your names in the ember sparks
You’re sitting on the pier like you never left
I’m the only one who knows we’re ghosts at best
If you’re not here
Then who am I talking to?
If you’re not here
Why do I still move for you?
[Verse 2]
You pass me the matches
You pass me the light
I taste all the gasoline
Every summer night
We walk through the wreckage
Bare feet
Black ash
You say
“It’s just water”
But I remember glass
[Chorus]
The fire didn’t end when the house went dark
I still hear your names in the ember sparks
You’re sitting on the pier like you never left
I’m the only one who knows we’re ghosts at best
If you’re not here
Then who am I talking to?
If you’re not here
Why do I still move for you?
[Bridge]
[Alarm-like synths rising
Vocals almost whispered]
Tell me you’re real
Tell me I stayed
Tell me the tide never took you away
Tell me that night was a bad
Bad dream (wake up)
But the photos are blank and you’re fine in my head
We float in the pool like nobody’s dead
And I keep choosing the lie over the scream (over the scream)
[Chorus]
The fire didn’t end when the house went dark
I still hear your names in the ember sparks
You’re sitting on the pier like you never left
I’m the only one who knows we’re ghosts at best
If you’re not here
Then who am I talking to? (talking to)
If you’re not here
Why do I still burn for you?
