closer to the fire that we started with
when we were younger and the fight wasn’t over yet
closer, I keep getting closer
the longer that it takes to get over it
the harder that it gets to uncover it
closer, keep getting closer

Now I would go back if I was capable
to that hotel we had a drink or two
live life
burn bright
words came out burning hot 
a fire that we couldn't stop

Was there ever that flame or did I dream it up?
Did we burn it out or did we give it up?
The closer I get, the further it seems

closer to the fire that we started with
when we were younger and the fight wasn’t over yet
closer, keep getting closer
the longer that it takes to get over it
the harder that it gets to uncover it
closer, keep getting closer





 





Now that you’re here with me
Something is coming free





If I could 
but then I would have to 





right in the palm of my hand
and I still looked away
moving on with no plan 

spending every night on a getaway
and lights on a busted stage


was this some fire that I dreamed up?
did I burn out, and now I have to light it up?





like an angel on a dashboard
like a getaway in a hotel 

when you were there riding shotgun in the getaway
singing your heart out at high noon on a Monday

you were_______ back in_____
I was _____ ready to run
now we’re further away from the place
_____

when did we ______
a couple of kids 

we used to pack up the car just to get away
now there are plenty of days we sit right in the driveway








I’ve got a fire that i dreamed up
it’s never gonna leave me
I can’t help but stir it up
Keep on giving just to give and won’t worry what I have to receive

I gave up on knowing and I found out
exactly where I started is where I am gonna win up
the simplest truth is the hardest to believe




is this some fire that I dreamed up?
will 
not going out if you just give it up



(it’s) never gonna leave you, you always have to stir it up
keep on giving just to give and don’t worry when you’re gonna receive

give up knowing and you’ll find out
exactly where you started is where are you a gonna wind up
sometimes the simplest truth is the hardest one to believe


closer to the light that you started with
when you were younger and the fight wasn’t over yet
closer, you keep getting closer
the longer that it take to get over it
harder that it gets to uncover it
closer, we’re getting closer

we had it right in our hands and then it burned away
when you built a city out of closet space
State lines
midnights
down 89, 91 and 95

When the road hit the wheels we would do anything
to keep that getaway feeling burning through our veins 
The closer I get, the further it seems

I get so afraid to just dig in the dark
I feel so alone down there in the well

I’m closer now
closer than I’ve ever been
I’ll light it up you see what you can do with it

I’m closer now
closer than I’ve ever been
Follow the fire maybe start it up again
