Description
**Describe the issue**
It looks like a semicolon inside a string is parsed as terminating the statement, at least sometimes.
**Which language seems to have the issue?**
`php`
**Are you using `highlight` or `highlightAuto`?**
`highlight`
**Sample Code to Reproduce**
Fiddle here: https://jsfiddle.net/c3sLm2ga/. See how the highlighting gets messed up halfway through the string in the `throw` statement. Oddly, double-quoted strings are also affected but in a slightly different way.
**Expected behavior**
```php
public static function mutate() {
$result = null;
DB::transaction(function () use (): void {
if (static::$currentMutator !== null) {
throw new LoggingMutatorException('LoggingMutator::mutate called while already in a mutation; nested mutations are not supported.');
}
$operationLogger = new OperationLogger($user);
})
}
```
