Saw a glimpse of myself
Out a Greyhound window
Headin' for the mountains just north of Seattle
I think I'll grow out my beard
Then I'll finally get sober
Had to get away, it's crazy how a heartbreak travels
And my clothes just smell like smoke
We been through hell, I know
But the glow ain't worth the burn that lovin' leaves
When fire meets gasoline
Lights yell quick, but you can't control the heat
When that fire meets gasoline
Yeah, sure it burns bright, but damn you lose everything
Yeah, we only ever ends up ashes on the breeze
When fire meets gasoline
Now I'm off some place, where no one knows you
Where St. Helen, she ain't blown, not for forty years
Yeah, the embers cool
And 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 shot won't cool the burn that loving leaves
When fire meets gasoline
Lights yell quick, but you can't control the heat
When that fire meets gasoline
Yeah, it sure 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
