So

I was surprised at where we turned, the conversation
Drifted away from where I thought we were going
Somewhere I didn't know, didn't live between the white lines
Balancing the negative
Even then I couldn't see past the embers dying
At the speed of light we were travelling
Dropping the baggage, we thought we had secured
We were in lock down, defended and adored
So,
Like fire in the snow
We know
Someone has to go

After the fact, we retract and exchange our story
Rumors and wrongdoing, time in the panic room
We can talk it up, we can make it stop
Anything's good enough when it's all you've got
They're gonna take us down just because they can
They're gonna make it hell when they know we're trying
We're not criminals, we're not criminals
Just some bad luck waiting for a miracle

So,
Like fire in the snow
We know
Someone has to go
See
The forest and the trees
And breathe
Whatever we believe
So...
