"Slowburn" lyrics

Meric Long & The Dodos Lyrics

"Slowburn"

How long has this felt ordinary?
Do you see me still? Am I steady?
I leave you to say what I didn't
The stories that we wrote turned out different

How long will this burn?
Hang on to every word
How long will this burn?
Hang on to every word
Will we ever watch it heal?

I heard that you were getting married
I thought I could help get you ready
Some stories that you wrote turned out different
How long will this burn?
Hang on to every word
Your worries and your hope somehow didn't
How long will this burn?
Hang on to every word

Look up, see if I'm there
Whatever gets us past this
Look up, see if I'm there
Whatever gets us past this
Look up, see if I'm there
Whatever gets us past this
Look up, see if I'm there
Whatever gets us past this
