Burning rocket

Chorus

Flicker of a spark in the freezing cold

Aluminum skin and a heart of gold

Higher than the birds on a one way flight

Turning into iron in the dead of night

I am a burning rocket

I am a burning rocket

Verse 1

Counting backwards

Static in my ear

Smoke rising up like a grey curtain

Shaking loose the heavy weight of every fear

Nothing is certain

Pre-Chorus

Everything I had I traded for the heat

Trading every comfort for a bit of speed

Losing all the logic as the clouds retreat

Chasing every ghost of every single need

Chorus

Flicker of a spark in the freezing cold

Aluminum skin and a heart of gold

Higher than the birds on a one way flight

Turning into iron in the dead of night

I am a burning rocket

I am a burning rocket

Verse 2

Paint is peeling

Seeing only blue

Gravity is trying just to drag me down

Ripping every single little part of you

Fading from the town

Pre-Chorus

Everything I had I traded for the heat

Trading every comfort for a bit of speed

Losing all the logic as the clouds retreat

Chasing every ghost of every single need

Chorus

Flicker of a spark in the freezing cold

Aluminum skin and a heart of gold

Higher than the birds on a one way flight

Turning into iron in the dead of night

I am a burning rocket

I am a burning rocket

Bridge

Going faster than a thought

Leaving everything I bought

Small and silent

Far and violent

Chorus

Flicker of a spark in the freezing cold

Aluminum skin and a heart of gold

Higher than the birds on a one way flight

Turning into iron in the dead of night

I am a burning rocket

I am a burning rocket
