Saw a glimpse of myself
Out a ground window
Headin' for the mountains just north of Seattle
I think I'll grow my beard
Then I'll finally get sober
Had to get away, it's crazy how a heartbreak travels
In my clothes that smell like smoke
We been through hell, I know
But the glow ain't worth the burnin' of the knees
When fire meets gasoline
Lights yell quick, but you can't control the heat
Oh, when that fire meets gasoline
Yeah, sure, it burns bright, but damn, you lose everything
Yeah, we only ever end up ashes on the breeze
When fire meets gasoline
Now I'm on some place where no one knows you
Say hell yeah, she ain't blown out for forty years
Yeah, the embers cool
Yeah, the dust might settle
And the flames burnt out, but the coast is far from clear
'Cause my clothes just smell like smoke
The bourbon stings my throat
But a shower won't cool the burnin' of the knees
Oh, when fire meets gasoline
Lights yell quick, but you can't control the heat
Oh, when that fire meets gasoline
Yeah, sure, it burns bright, but damn, you lose everything
Yeah, we only ever end up ashes on the breeze
When fire meets gasoline
When fire meets gasoline
Yeah, my clothes just smell like smoke
We been through hell, I know
But the glow ain't worth the burn, it's plain to see
When fire meets gasoline
