"When The Midnight Fireworks Start" lyrics

"When The Midnight Fireworks Start"

I'm a slow burn
Driving fast through a city
Full of matches and gasoline leaks
Full of people so shiny and pretty
I'm a slow burn
You gotta give me a few more years
But there is nothing that can stop this fire
Broken bridges, no amount of tears

I'm a slow burn
About to take flame
And when the midnight fireworks start
Everybody will know my name
And it will never be the same
And it will never be the same
And it will never
Be the same

It's a short flight
From the safe zone to danger
From the middle to the edges
From your family to a stranger
But there's a little light
Keeping me on the right track
I'm getting used to the temperature
I am never gonna go back

I'm a slow burn
About to take flame
And when the midnight fireworks start
Everybody will know my name
And it will never be the same
It will never be the same
It will never
Be the same

I was crawling, now I'm about to walk
And when I stand up straight the whole world will talk
And when I snap my fingers they will clap along
Singing words by heart to every single song

I'm a slow burn
About to take flame
And when the midnight fireworks start
Everybody will know my name
And it will never be the same
It will never be the same
And it will never
Be the same
