[Verse 1] You were the spark in a room full of smoke I was the gasoline, the promise that broke We hit like lightning on a dry summer night Beautiful chaos, blinding and bright But fire feeds on what it burns to the ground We built an empire just to watch it crash down The louder the love, the harder the screams Chasing each other through shattered-glass dreams [Chorus ] 'Cause we were fire and gasoline The prettiest nightmare the world's ever seen Waging a war between love and the hate Torn all to pieces by a self-made fate Now the smoke is clearing, and the tears start to fall Separation is the hardest, coldest wall It hurts to no end, it's a phantom pain But there's a flicker of light through this pouring rain [Verse 2] The silence is heavy where the battlefield stood We tried to fix it, God knows that we would But some things are meant to be broken apart To find the true rhythm of a bruised, beating heart Every scar tells a story of the heartache we shed All the bitter words that can't be unsaid Yet in the quiet, a still voice speaks low Telling my spirit it's okay to let go [Chorus ] 'Cause we were fire and gasoline The prettiest nightmare the world's ever seen Waging a war between love and the hate Torn all to pieces by a self-made fate Now the smoke is clearing, and the tears start to fall Separation is the hardest, coldest wall It hurts to no end, it's a phantom pain But there's a flicker of light through this pouring rain [Bridge ] He gives us trial and error to see who we are To find the grace hidden deep in the scar It's a lesson in faith when the night is so long To trust in the maker when the music goes wrong The darkness is heavy, but it's just for a space To empty our hands for a brand new embrace [Guitar Solo / Instrumental Break] [Chorus ] We're no longer fire and gasoline We're rewriting the pages of what it all means No longer fighting the love and the hate Stepping away from that volatile gate The separation hurts, yeah it cuts to the bone But I'm learning to breathe on this path alone Walking toward the light that's starting to rise Wiping the dust and the tears from my eyes [Outro ] At the end of the day, you just gotta be still Be patient and trust in a higher will The storm had to pass for the flowers to grow God's got a plan that we don't fully know Just wait for the morning, let the healing start He's gonna bless you with a whole new heart A life full of love, steady and true The fire is gone, and the sky is brand blue Just be patient... A life full of love is waiting for you
