Slowburn -

I’ve got a name for a certain quarantine

Her name is slowburn, she makes me feel real mean

When I ask why she says I’m caught in a lie

She’s got a bad disguise

I ask a question, never got a reaction

I caught a glimpse of a subtle distraction

Instinctive stomach pain, I lie awake in bed awake again

This time it’s my revenge

I want to be you, already beaten me

When you are bound I’m free

I’d like to hold you so close you know I’m there

There is no refuge

I’ve got a name for someone who shouldn’t be in my mind

When she’s away it seems I can’t escape, I’m doing time

Without a place to go I’m lost inside, well no one knows

These rules will have to bend

I want to be you, already beaten me

When you are bound I’m free

I’d like to hold you so close you know I’m there

There is no refuge

This has been a process

And I’m sorry I had to do you in like this

And I can’t say how good I feel about it

There was so much, so much that you stole

You took my heart, you’re in my soul

But most of all you took my sanity

Now watch while I assess

The situation at hand, this hand has turned into a fist

I want to be you, already beaten me

When you are bound I’m free

I’d like to hold you so close you know I’m there

There is no refuge

I want to be you, already beaten me

When you are bound I’m free

I’d like to hold you so close you know I’m there

There is no refuge
