Through the Fire, Through the Fog

Footsteps on a hollow road

Dust clings to my heels
The wind hums a worn-out song, but I forgot how it feels
Lost in the static, just drifting in a dream
Then the ground split open, and I fell right through the seam

Through the fire, through the fog, something broke inside
I saw lightning in my bones, and I could finally cry
No map, no plan, just a heartbeat to guide me
Sometimes you gotta burn it down just to feel alive

Took a bus to nowhere, let the wheels just spin
Met a preacher in a pawn shop who swore I’d rise again
Said: Son, your shadow’s longer when the Sun sits low
And I finally understood what I never dared to know

Neon signs, motel lights, blurry faces whisper fate
The past is just a record that the needle overplays
So I set it on fire, let the embers paint the sky
Watched the smoke write new verses, watched the old ones die

Through the fire

Through the fire, through the fog, something broke inside
I saw lightning in my bones, and I could finally cry
No map, no plan, just a heartbeat to guide me
Sometimes you gotta burn it down just to feel alive

Through the fire, through the fog, something broke inside
I saw lightning in my bones, and I could finally cry
No map, no plan, just a heartbeat to guide me
Sometimes you gotta burn it down just to feel alive

Now the road sings softer, the dust feels like a friend
Ain’t afraid of getting lost if it means I start again

Through the fire, through the fog, something broke inside
I saw lightning in my bones, and I could finally cry
No map, no plan, just a heartbeat to guide me
Sometimes you gotta burn it down just to feel alive
