Only we know the quiet roads and the vacant malls,
Or the cool of perfect darkness just outside the sprawl,
Only we heard the drums pumping in the stadium,

And built our truths like fires,
In the promised land where we come from,

CHORUS
And when you look now in my eyes,
Do you see the boy that swore on every inch of you,
Our light would never die,
Is a bravery inside me,
Still clinging to my clothes,
Like smoke from a fire only we know.

Only we know how good your daddy's records sound,
Or just how far a fall it is from the window to the ground,
Only we smell the rain just before it comes,

And think first of each other,
Every time we're burned by love,

CHORUS
When I look now in your eyes,
I still see the thing that made us lions,
The thing that made us free,
And the bravery inside you,
Still clinging to your clothes,
Like smoke from a fire only we know.

Like SMOOOOOOKKKEEEE'

CHORUS
And when you look now in my eyes,
Do you see the boy that swore on every inch of you,
Our light would never die,
Is a bravery inside me,
Still clinging to my clothes,
Like smoke from a fire only we know.
