Out of the Fire

[Intro] [Verse 1] You lit a match to my heart, burned it down like hay, Left your whiskey words to d***n the pain away. Every "sorry" carved in dust, but the hurt still stays, Now I’m packing up these ghosts and driving far away. [Pre-Chorus] You said the stars were ours, now they’re just black and blue, Thirteen towns I’ve mapped to forget the taste of you. Your love was a fever, but I’m breaking through, One last turn and I’ll be gone before the morning dew. [Chorus] I’m walking out of the fire, smoke in my rearview, Your “forever” was a spark that turned the sky from blue. “It’s all my fault,” but I know that ain’t the truth, The ashes of your lies can’t chase me back to you. [Verse 2] You called my tears a flood, said I’d d***n your name, But the highway’s singing louder than your shame. My boots k**k the past where the shadows lay, And the dawn’s a golden promise I’ll never trade. [Pre-Chorus] Your voice still haunts the radio, but I’m changing the tune, Swapped your p****n vows for a dusty harvest moon. One hand on the wheel, one waving back at you, This dirt-road freedom’s all I’m taking as my truth. [Chorus] I’m walking out of the fire, smoke in my rearview, Your “forever” was a spark that turned the sky from blue. “It’s all my fault,” but I know that ain’t the truth, The ashes of your lies can’t chase me back to you. [Bridge] Your love was a wildfire, but I’m the rain, Growing wild where the pain couldn’t stake its claim. No more counting cracks in the walls we made, I’m a phoenix in the rearview, rising unafraid. [Chorus] I’m walking out of the fire, smoke in my rearview, Your “forever” was a spark that turned the sky from blue. “It’s all my fault,” but I know that ain’t the truth, The ashes of your lies can’t chase me back to you. [Outro]
