[Verse 1]
Maybe I'm in my head, but everything we said was wrong
Maybe I should have known we could have made this right all along

[Pre-Chorus]
Why are we still holdin' back after everything that led us here?
I don't wanna watch it disappear

[Chorus]
'Cause we're holdin' back the reins and we're screechin' on the tires
But the dyin' ember's flame could light the fire

[Post-Chorus]
Could light the fire, could light the fire

[Instrumental Break]

[Verse 2]
Remember when we first met? I knew you had a heart of gold
The way you let me in was something I had never known

[Pre-Chorus]
When I turn around, I see the life we've made, I know we've come so far
And I don't wanna watch it fall apart

[Chorus]
'Cause we're holdin' back the reins and we're screechin' on the tires
But the dyin' ember's flame could light the fire
[Post-Chorus]
Could light the fire, could light the fire
