False Alarm Lyrics
[Pre-Chorus]
I heard sirens in my head
From the first time that we met
Thought it was a false alarm
Yeah, we started as a spark
Didn't think we'd come this far
But here we are, oh
[Chorus]
I'm dancing in flames
I'm dancing in flames
I ain't scared of the blaze
Don't rescue me
And now I'm burning in your arms
Endless fire in my heart
No, it's not a false alarm
No, it's not a false alarm
[Verse 1]
But here we are
I never get my hopes up
Cause then I'll never get let down
But you were something special
I didn't notice until now
[Pre-Chorus]
I heard sirens in my head
From the first time that we met
Thought it was a false alarm
Yeah, we started as a spark
Didn't think we'd come this far
But here we are, oh
I heard sirens in my head
From the first time that we met
Thought it was a false alarm
Yeah, we started as a spark
Didn't think we'd come this far
But here we are, oh
[Chorus]
I'm dancing in flames
I'm dancing in flames
I ain't scared of the blaze
Don't rescue me
And now I'm burning in your arms
Endless fire in my heart
No, it's not a false alarm
No, it's not a false alarm
[Verse 1]
But here we are
I never get my hopes up
Cause then I'll never get let down
But you were something special
I didn't notice until now
[Pre-Chorus]
I heard sirens in my head
From the first time that we met
Thought it was a false alarm
Yeah, we started as a spark
Didn't think we'd come this far
But here we are, oh
[Chorus]
I'm dancing in flames
I'm dancing in flames
I ain't scared of the blaze
Don't rescue me
And now I'm burning in your arms
Endless fire in my heart
No, it's not a false alarm
No, it's not a false alarm
No, it's not a false alarm
No, no
No, it's not a false alarm
No, no
No, it's not a false alarm
[Bridge]
Maybe I'm too careful
Didn't trust the signs
Didn't wanna jump
Too scared of the height
[Chorus]
And now I'm burning in your arms
Endless fire in my heart
No, it's not a false alarm
No, it's not a false alarm
Oh, no, it's not a false alarm
No, no
No, it's not a false alarm
No, it's not a false alarm
No, it's not a false alarm
I'm dancing in flames
I'm dancing in flames
I ain't scared of the blaze
Don't rescue me
And now I'm burning in your arms
Endless fire in my heart
No, it's not a false alarm
No, it's not a false alarm
No, it's not a false alarm
No, no
No, it's not a false alarm
No, no
No, it's not a false alarm
[Bridge]
Maybe I'm too careful
Didn't trust the signs
Didn't wanna jump
Too scared of the height
[Chorus]
And now I'm burning in your arms
Endless fire in my heart
No, it's not a false alarm
No, it's not a false alarm
Oh, no, it's not a false alarm
No, no
No, it's not a false alarm
No, it's not a false alarm
No, it's not a false alarm

What was the inspiration for the track?
Genius Answer
I got inspired by the vocals. I got inspired by Becky and it was during a hectic time, but I just found peace and quiet with her voice. I tried to compliment what was already there on the vocal side, and I ended up with that version and people loved it!
