"Slow Burn" lyrics

I think I know your secret
It's not as good as mine

Been looking for a reason
And coming up dry

Why do I

Stick around
Living off
The fantasy
You put me on
I swear it's real
But maybe not

You tell me that you want me using everything but words
And every single day you make me wait just makes it worse
You set my heart on fire now I'm crying in the smoke
Tell me that you want me while I'm dying from this slow
Slow burn

When I think it's over
You don't say goodbye

Maybe when we're older
I won't be asking why

Why do I

Stick it out
Through everything
When I should know
Better than
I swear it's real
But then again

You tell me that you want me using everything but words
And every single day you make me wait just makes it worse
You set my heart on fire now I'm crying in the smoke
Tell me that you want me while I'm dying from this slow, oh

It's been 3 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?

Walk me to the door and I see it
There in your eyes how could I not believe it?
Holding my breath
Now I know that you're feeling
How I'm feeling

You tell me that you want me using everything but words
And every single day you make me wait just makes it worse
Oh you set my heart on fire now I'm crying in the smoke
Tell me that you want me while I'm dying from this slow
Slow burn

Slow burn

Slow burn
