Slow Burn

歌詞

It begins with a dark glowing ember Something black burning its way out of me Searing the flesh Pain is the only thing I feel Scars all I see Oh no, the fires burning my insides again What can I do to silence my desire tonight? Flames consuming reason leaving only ashes left You won't catch me regretting my decision I can't keep telling myself What I want to hear (what I want to hear) I can't just close my eyes I know That it's killing me And it's poisoning The best of me What I see I don't want to believe So let me tell you more, tell you more About the lies I lead That is how I chose to douse the flames in gasoline Broken teeth replace the blackout memories in my head Wreckage from the past haunts me, shakes me to the bone (to the bone) I know it's over but I can't go home tonight (no) And after this I feel as empty as the night before Feel the pain and yet I'm still begging for more Masochistic, nihilistic, urging backward thought My life's a mess and I can't find a way to fix it I can't keep telling myself What I want to hear (what I want to hear) I can't just close my eyes (close my eyes, my eyes, my fucking eyes) I know That it's killing me And it's poisoning The best of me What I see (what I see) I don't want to believe (want to believe) So let me tell you more, tell you more About the lies I lead Calling Calling out (calling out) The darkest reaches of my soul are Riddled with self-doubt Crawling Crawling out My will to fight will more than suffice when Others would lay down It's only as dark as you make it I know (I know) That it's killing me (it's killing) And it's poisoning (it's poisoning) The best of me (the best of me) What I see (what I see) I don't want to believe (want to believe) So let me tell you more, tell you more About the lies I lead
