Chris Pureka - Tinder lyrics

Breathing lessons and bleeding poems
Caught in my throat
Oh, if you bring the tinder
I’ll bring the fuel
I’d rather burn this down than let it go
Hey, hey

Before the grieving
Before the salt water rain
Before the strain sparks the engine
Sending speed to the wheels
Before you’re shedding your skin
And I’m running for the coast
Before my chest is howling
With the songs of your ghost

You should know you should know
You should know, me

How’d we get here? Crime for crime?
It was only my mouth
Oh, if you bring the tinder
I’ll bring the fuel
I’d rather watch this burn than let it go
Hey, hey

Before the tail spin
Before the miles and miles, and
Before the reeling and the
Running off the rails
Before the fault lines tremble
Under the weight of the years
And we’re spreading the ashes
Out in the fields

You should know you should know
You should know, me
