"Slowburn" lyrics

"Slowburn"

13 million acres in a slow burn
30 years to learn, no going backwards

It's a telltale sign of the end of time
But "it's fun to die" online

Burning a hole through the ozone
You can pump us full of your hormones
Trading little hearts in for headstones
Building up a wall with no capstone

It's a big joke, look at your phone
Alone, don't mind what we don't know
It's a big joke, look at your phone
Alone, alone with your mind closed

"It's really cold outside," so you can deny
Watched a compilation on your timeline

It's a telltale sign
But "it's fun to die" online

Burning a hole through the ozone
You can pump us full of your hormones
Trading little hearts in for headstones
Building up a wall with no capstone

It's a big joke, look at your phone
Alone, don't mind what we don't know
It's a big joke, look at your phone
Alone, alone with your mind closed

Misrule, burn fuel, write our headlines
Skip school, have you ever seen the youth strike back
