Burn

lyrics

Insecurities
stemming from superficial anxieties,
social norms, and expectations
almost always are the hands
to choose your next infatuation.
Many people convince themselves they feel a deep natural attraction
For the one who gets acceptable reactions
from their peers
Or others they hold dear.
Pretentious satisfaction.

In every town
this world around
lights will go down
and fevers go up
fingers get crossed
and hopes untied
rising so high
to fly free.
Nearly touching the sun
before they come
falling like birds fishing in the sea.
Oh if catching true love
were so easy,
wouldn't we be blossoms on a spring tree, but

We're not meant to be as beautiful as that.
We're meant to be a little more ugly.
We're meant to hunt and trick and trap.
and throw it back when it no longer fills our needs.

We're meant to burn.
At every turn we learn how to burn.
At every turn we yearn
for a cooler life than we've earned
And pray for

Somebody matching our endless heat.
Show us the magic to end the madness.
If we weren't such cowards chasing common feats
wouldn't we be suns setting on the sea, but

We're not meant to be as beautiful as that.
We're meant to be a little more ugly.
We're meant to use, consume, attack
and throw it back.

ooooh
ooooh
ooooh
ooooh

Insecurities
stemming from superficial anxieties,
social norms, and expectations
almost always are the hands
to choose your next infatuation.
Many people convince themselves they feel a deep natural attraction
For the one who gets acceptable reactions
from their peers
Or others they hold dear.
Pretentious satisfaction.
