I take it back, I was never alone
My censored thoughts, mild and monotone
I took a train to Berlin today
When I called last night
You felt so far away

Tonight I'll laugh, I say whatever I want
Stay in the bar til the sun comes up
And I see myself through my sister's eyes
I'm a live wire, electrified

Sparks fly, sparks fly

Death grip on some feigned humility
Effort executed beautifully
My pride clenched tight in my shaky hand
Til I let go and buried my head in the sand

Or I'll go back south, I'll leave it all behind
See myself clearly for the first time
Since I met you on a foggy night
A disaster, dignified

Sparks fly, sparks fly

We sat in the hot summer twilight
Radio loud and the brim bite
The Coosa water is choppy and wild
I jumped abruptly, unreconciled
