Max Garcia Conover - Fire on I295

fire on i295

i saw her crying in her car
in a symphony of violins and classical guitars
i could hardly hear the sirens for the static and the sound on the stereo

fire on i295
she looks out her window she tells me she’ll be fine
the smoke a head a canyon a cavern set into the sky

i think i could love somebody now
i think i could love somebody now
while a tractor trailer burns

we were driving
we were moving
now we’re sitting on the side of the highway
collision on the interstate

she looks at her reflection in the mirror
she says her sister lives about a mile north of here
and when she saw the wreck she imagined her nephew in his carseat

i think i could love somebody now
i think i could love somebody now
while a tractor trailer burns

we were driving
we were moving
now we’re sitting on the side of the highway
collision on the interstate

tremble through the haze
tremble through the haze
i’m gonna know you till my body burns
i’m gonna know you till my body burns

we were driving
we were moving
now we’re sitting on the side of the highway
collision on the interstate

we were driving
we were moving
we were driving
don’t tell me i’m alone
