Midnight Fire Drill

[Verse 1]

We were just friends at the back of the party

Plastic cups

Crooked crown

Cheap confetti in my hair

You said

"Run

" then you pulled me through the hallway

Felt the floor disappear like we’d taken the stairs to the air

[Pre-Chorus]

Who lit the fuse in my chest like that?

Why does your laugh make the room tilt back?

You drew a heart on my wrist with your nail

Now my pulse won’t fail

It’s racing

[Chorus]

You’re my midnight fire drill

Running down the halls of my heart

Standing still

Every time you touch me

Chaos

Thrill

I don’t wanna

Don’t wanna calm down

Shouting your name till the walls all fall

Kick down the doors of my doubts

Break them all

Baby

When you kiss me

I lose control

You’re my midnight fire drill

Fire drill

[Verse 2]

Taxi lights blur and we’re flying through the city

Singing wrong words

Wrong key

But it feels like a hit

You steal my fries

Then you dare me "Say you miss me"

I roll my eyes

But my smile kinda ruins it

[Pre-Chorus]

Who turned my life to a late-night scene?

You write your jokes on my old ripped jeans

We’re off the map

But it feels so right

Every red light’s green when you’re here

[Chorus]

You’re my midnight fire drill

Running down the halls of my heart

Standing still

Every time you touch me

Chaos

Thrill

I don’t wanna

Don’t wanna calm down

Shouting your name till the walls all fall

Kick down the doors of my doubts

Break them all

Baby

When you kiss me

I lose control

You’re my midnight fire drill

Fire drill

[Bridge]

[Drums and bass drop to half-time

Vocals close and intimate]

Call me out

Call me crazy

Tell me that you’re just as shaky

If we burn

Then we burn together (together)

Hands up high in the sprinkler rain

Laughing while the world complains

Let ’em talk

They don’t know this pressure

[Chorus]

You’re my midnight fire drill

Running down the halls of my heart

Standing still

Every time you touch me

Chaos

Thrill

I don’t wanna

Don’t wanna calm down (oh no)

Shouting your name till the walls all fall

Kick down the doors of my doubts

Break them all

Baby

When you kiss me

I lose control

You’re my midnight fire drill

Fire drill

[Outro]

(Yeah) my midnight fire drill

Breathing hard on the rooftop still

If this is danger

Keep me here

Midnight fire drill

My dear
