Lyrics

Intro

Mm

Mm-hmm

Oh-oh

Verse 1

Woke up on the cold side of the morning

Chrome light bleeding through the blinds

I built this whole house on a warning

Now I'm counting every crack I find

Pre-Chorus

Hold the wire

Hold it till it sings

Closer to the fire

Closer to everything

Chorus

We burn slow in the afterglow

Rise up from the river below

We burn slow let the wild winds blow

Carry me where I belong

Drop

Go

Go

Wide awake

Go

Verse 2

Pressed my name into the ash and gravel

Let the thunder write the rest

Every ghost I used to travel

Settled low inside my chest

Pre-Chorus

Hold the wire

Hold it till it rings

Closer to the fire

Closer to the kings

Chorus

We burn slow in the afterglow

Rise up from the river below

We burn slow let the wild winds blow

Carry me where I belong

Bridge

Maybe I'm drifting

Maybe I'm gold

Maybe the night keeps the story untold

(Backing: carry me carry me)

Maybe I'm burning

Maybe I'm home

Drop

Go

Go

Wide awake

Go

Chorus

We burn slow in the afterglow

Rise up from the river below

We burn slow let the wild winds blow

Carry me where I belong
