Broken Flames

I've been walking through the fire
With the scars
I can't erase
Every step I
Take feels heavier
But still
Can't leave this place

Whiskey bottles on
The table
Memories I can't contain
You're the ghost inside the ashes
Still burning in my pain

And I know, and I know
I should've let you go
But the fire in my chest
Pulls me back, I confess

We're broken flames
Broken flames, burning in the dark
We can't escape
Lighting up the scars we made
But love don't heal that way
We're broken flames
Fighting with the shadows of our names

Holding on, though
Nothing stays
Only fire that fades

Every night I chase silence
But your echoes
Calling me home
Like a mad
Truck in the darkness
You remind me I'm alone

I try to drown
You in the bottle
But your face
Still finds a way
Through the smoke
And all the chaos
I can't turn
The night to day

And I know, I know
Should've let you go
But the fire
In my chest
Keeps pulling me back
I confess we're
I confess we're

Broken flames
Burning in the dark, we can't escape
Lighting up the scars we made
But love don't
Heal that way
We're broken flames
Fighting with the shadows of our names

Holding on, though
Nothing's stayed
We're only fire that fades

I'm living in the silence
You're screaming in my veins
I try to leave it all behind
But we're addicted
To the flame

We're broken flames
Burning in the dark
We can't escape
Lighting up the scars we made
But love don't heal that way
We're broken flames
Fighting with the shadows of our names

Holding on, though
Nothing stays
Only fire that fades
