(Verse 1)

I'm doing a slow burn

I passed "tired" three years ago

but its no cause for concern

I'm gonna fight this undertow

(Verse 2)

I've never been more alive

"All to lose and nothing to gain"

what a freak does just to survive

with the rhythm of the rain

(Verse 3)

A spiritual wasteland

I'm in one hell of a mess

Way too deep to understand

But its nothing more and nothing less

(Verse 4)

Dancing on my high wire

fool enough to think I've got a chance

love these dangerous desires

just to be cheated by circumstance

(Bridge)

"feel" it in my bones

now I maybe lucky

gonna "fuel" the fire

take a deep breath

(and "feel" like a new man)

(Chorus)

slow burn - tied to a totem pole

slow burn -keep it real and under control

slow burn -till I turn stone cold

I'm a slow burn - take it back

and don't tell a soul

slow burn - fused to my rib cage,

slow burn - lit it up at an early age slow burn fire - and I'm wild with rage I'm a slow burn casualty on the back page.
