Slow Burn
Over in the eastern skies where black went down
You bury the torch again
A sinner walking on a frozen lake
You said don't mind the losses cause I'm bringing you back again
Welcome stranger, we've to walk the plank
Just waving all the time
There's weight on your feet and mine
Rabid rabid shake a stick at what the fire's become
Up in your alley there's a door that's never seen the sun
Need a drink when you're feeling like a loaded gun
Don't leave your thoughts in the aerosol dreams are won
I never thought this day would come
When a stranger becomes the only one
Can't walk on the water, man
So flip those coins from your cryptic hands
Two choices come up again
Cause you can't live until you swim
Do you know it's where the no-no's that follow you in
Slow burn
Into the heart you burn
Slow burn
Into the heart you turn
When you doubt it all can you cough it out
Until the dogs run out into your fields
Slow burn
Into the heart
Was that a beginning or was that the end?
Did you see all the spinning flipping out on the bend?
Does it always fall through you when you just won't give in?
See a cop in the rearview, I think we're finally turned in
And into the blaze we go
Pile up all the things we know
Who said that we die alone?
Your hand in my hand has grown into a place where we've never been
So why should we fear the end?
The smoke in your eyes, my love
Blue bolts in the skies above your head
That slide down and melt the core
Forget all those ones we've known before
That's why we're all made of clay
Cause deep down it can die all the way
Slow burn
Into the heart you burn
Slow burn
Into the heart you turn
When you doubt it all can you cough it out
Until the dogs run out into your fields
Slow burn
Into the heart
You bury the torch again
A sinner walking on a frozen lake
You said don't mind the losses cause I'm bringing you back again
Welcome stranger, we've to walk the plank
Just waving all the time
There's weight on your feet and mine
Rabid rabid shake a stick at what the fire's become
Up in your alley there's a door that's never seen the sun
Need a drink when you're feeling like a loaded gun
Don't leave your thoughts in the aerosol dreams are won
I never thought this day would come
When a stranger becomes the only one
Can't walk on the water, man
So flip those coins from your cryptic hands
Two choices come up again
Cause you can't live until you swim
Do you know it's where the no-no's that follow you in
Slow burn
Into the heart you burn
Slow burn
Into the heart you turn
When you doubt it all can you cough it out
Until the dogs run out into your fields
Slow burn
Into the heart
Was that a beginning or was that the end?
Did you see all the spinning flipping out on the bend?
Does it always fall through you when you just won't give in?
See a cop in the rearview, I think we're finally turned in
And into the blaze we go
Pile up all the things we know

Your hand in my hand has grown into a place where we've never been
So why should we fear the end?
The smoke in your eyes, my love
Blue bolts in the skies above your head

Forget all those ones we've known before
That's why we're all made of clay
Cause deep down it can die all the way
Slow burn
Into the heart you burn
Slow burn
Into the heart you turn
When you doubt it all can you cough it out
Until the dogs run out into your fields
Slow burn
Into the heart
