"Slow Burn" lyrics

"Slow Burn"

He likes pretending the end time's impending
Keeps the good book by his side
She keeps on praying that he'll do the saving
They've lived through much worse and survived
He's just accepting there's no happy ending
He wished he made more of his life
She's only after the truth of the matter
But nobody knows the reasons why

Are we gasoline?
Are we kerosene?
Who's gonna put out this fire?
Glaciers up so high
Forests all ignite
All our dreams just flames in the sky

It's a slow burn
It's a slow burn

I wrote a letter, "I'm sorry it hurt you"
That's all I could do from this side
Sometimes our words fly like small little birds
They get lost in the smoke time to time
No one is calling the silence is haunting
From all that we lost in the fire
Time is a taker, a cheat, a rule breaker
And no one is promised a buyer

Are we gasoline?
Are we kerosene?
Who's gonna put out this fire?
Glaciers up so high
Forests all ignite
All our dreams just flames in the sky

It's a slow burn
It's a slow burn

When you're up so high
Shouldn't have to try

Are we gasoline?
Are we kerosene?
Who's gonna put out this fire?
Glaciers up so high
Forests all ignite
All our dreams just flames in the sky

It's a slow burn
It's a slow burn

A slow burn
