Slow Burn

I think I know your secret

It's not as good as mine

Been lookin' for a reason

And comin' up dry

Why do I

Stick around, livin' off

The fantasy you put me on?

I swear it's real, but maybe not

You tell me that you want me usin' everything but words

And every single day you make me wait just makes it worse

You set my heart on fire, now I'm cryin' in the smoke

Tell me that you want me while I'm dying from this slow

Slow burn, mm

When I think it's over

You don't say goodbye

Maybe when we're older

I won't be askin' why

Why do I

Stick it out through everythin'

When I should know better than?

I swear, it's real, but then again

You tell me that you want me usin' everything but words

And every single day you make me wait just makes it worse

You set my heart on fire, now I'm cryin' in the smoke

Tell me that you want me while I'm dying from this slow, oh

It's been three years too long stuck in the back seat

Hand on my leg when you're drunk, and I'm laughing

Tell all our friends that you're mad when I'm happy

What does that mean? What does that mean?

You walk me to the door and I see it

There, in your eyes, how could I not believe it?

Holdin' my breath, now I know that you're feelin'

How I'm feelin'

You tell me that you want me usin' everything but words

And every single day you make me wait just makes it worse, so

You set my heart on fire, now I'm cryin' in the smoke

Tell me that you want me while I'm dying from this slow

Slow burn

Oh, slow burn

Slow burn
