Slow Burn
Let's reflect
Erase the portrait that you painted of me in your head
A fake and foreign concept that you project on me instead
Of figuring me out, no I won't change
And I can't pretend
See I've been dreaming of a house fire
I've been dreaming that these walls are gonna crumble where I stand
I've been dreaming of a house fire
While you've been holding out your hand
While you've been holding out your hand
I've been dreaming that I'm riding in the back seat of a car
I've been dreaming no one's driving
How the hell'd we get this far
I've been dreaming that I try to take control before we wreck
I've been dreaming that my foot won't reach the brake
I've been dreaming of solutions that I know I'll never find
I've been dreaming that I'm staring at the sun til I go blind
I've been seeing figures on my walls when I can't get to sleep
When I can, I'm dreaming that you're still here keeping me awake
You're keeping me awake
Oh you're still keeping me awake
You're keeping me awake
You're still keeping me awake
I've been dreaming of a house fire
I've been waiting for a gust of wind to carry me away
I've been dreaming of a house fire
I've been dreaming that the wind only accelerates the flames
You're keeping me awake
Erase the portrait that you painted of me in your head
A fake and foreign concept that you project on me instead
Of figuring me out, no I won't change
And I can't pretend
See I've been dreaming of a house fire
I've been dreaming that these walls are gonna crumble where I stand
I've been dreaming of a house fire
While you've been holding out your hand
While you've been holding out your hand
I've been dreaming that I'm riding in the back seat of a car
I've been dreaming no one's driving
How the hell'd we get this far
I've been dreaming that I try to take control before we wreck
I've been dreaming that my foot won't reach the brake
I've been dreaming of solutions that I know I'll never find
I've been dreaming that I'm staring at the sun til I go blind
I've been seeing figures on my walls when I can't get to sleep
When I can, I'm dreaming that you're still here keeping me awake
You're keeping me awake
Oh you're still keeping me awake
You're keeping me awake
You're still keeping me awake
I've been dreaming of a house fire
I've been waiting for a gust of wind to carry me away
I've been dreaming of a house fire
I've been dreaming that the wind only accelerates the flames
You're keeping me awake
