Burning Me Out
Flicker Flicker
That's what you do
So complicated
And I know the truth
Burning me out, boy
Burning me out,
For your pleasure
Spreading through me like a wildfire disobedient
No controlling it, consuming, unruly
All my nerves on end I can't pretend
I'm not surrendering
Or censoring
So foolish
I do it
Burning me out
Burning me out
Burning me out
Oh you're burning me, burning me out
Embers remain from the mess that you made
Leaving your mark, branded me with the scars
I know maybe I should let go
Cause of all your gaslighting
Keep slipping on that sultry grin
Strike the match and watch me burn myself
Into overthinking
All my thoughts keep on drip, drip, dripping
Burning me out
Burning me out
Burning me out
Oh you're burning me, burning me out
Liar, liar, pants are on fire
Liar, liar, catching fire
Catch me on fire
Phoenix from ashes
Like your desire
Catch me on fire
Like a phoenix I'll rise from the ashes
Oh you're burning me out
Oh you're burning me out
Oh you're burning me out
Oh you're burning me, burning me out
Oh look at all the charcoal remains
You're dusting me off
Yet you play the same game
I didn't think that
We'd be here so fast
Fire is hot
Heat is on low
Turn it up darling
Oh watch the flames grow.
That's what you do
So complicated
And I know the truth
Burning me out, boy
Burning me out,
For your pleasure
Spreading through me like a wildfire disobedient
No controlling it, consuming, unruly
All my nerves on end I can't pretend
I'm not surrendering
Or censoring
So foolish
I do it
Burning me out
Burning me out
Burning me out
Oh you're burning me, burning me out
Embers remain from the mess that you made
Leaving your mark, branded me with the scars
I know maybe I should let go
Cause of all your gaslighting
Keep slipping on that sultry grin
Strike the match and watch me burn myself
Into overthinking
All my thoughts keep on drip, drip, dripping
Burning me out
Burning me out
Burning me out
Oh you're burning me, burning me out
Liar, liar, pants are on fire
Liar, liar, catching fire
Catch me on fire
Phoenix from ashes
Like your desire
Catch me on fire
Like a phoenix I'll rise from the ashes
Oh you're burning me out
Oh you're burning me out
Oh you're burning me out
Oh you're burning me, burning me out
Oh look at all the charcoal remains
You're dusting me off
Yet you play the same game
I didn't think that
We'd be here so fast
Fire is hot
Heat is on low
Turn it up darling
Oh watch the flames grow.
