Cm          D#                G#
We've been lost for a long time
      D#
In a rut, no escape signs
And, for love, we were so blind
Oh, I hate to see you cry
There've been times where the truth lied
Now, it's clear as a blue sky

        Fm            D#               A#
Like a Band-Aid over deeper cuts, we tried
We couldn't stop the fate descending on the night

Chorus:
Cm     D#      G#       D#       Cm
We'll build a fire and torch our old lives
D#             G#      D#
And hope the spark survives
Use words as kindling, light up the night sky
Let the memories take flight
And hope the spark survives

Yeah, we hope the spark survives

Oh, I wonder, will we pull through?
All we ever do is argue
With not a lot, but we make do
How I wish you wouldn't say that
There are things you can't take back
When you leave, I always face facts

Like a hand that's trying to hold the water back
We couldn't stop the ocean leaking in the cracks

Chorus

Yeah, we hope the spark survives

 Gm                            A#
We've taken roads (Oh, we've taken roads)
                D#
That led to confusion
                           A#       F
But right now, that don't matter at all (Na-na)

We'll bring it back (Yeah, we'll bring it back)
Our love's no illusion
The higher we go, the harder we fall, and now

Chorus

Yeah, we hope the spark survives
And we hope the spark survives
