Burning Up Slow
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
I get all my hope solo biking in Central Park
Posing my health as a riddle in this population still
It didn't sit right in my eyes
Didn't sit right with my patience
It's breezy while I die on this hill
'Cause I don't see no compromise
If we burnin' up slow, I'm just tryna fall with you
Would carry out my own demise
If we burnin' up slow, I'm just tryna fall for you
It was a tragedy with icing
And we're about as caked up as Antoinette with a silver lining
The playbook's gone and I really don't care which part of me is dying
(Just put one foot in front of the other, one, two, three, four, five)
But I ain't gon' hold you to what you say
And the worst part of me is jealous of what you find okay
But you know it wasn't right in my eyes
Didn't sit right with my patience
It's breezy while I die on this hill
'Cause I don't see no compromise
If we burnin' up slow, I'm just tryna fall with you
Would carry out my own demise
If we burnin' up slow, you don't gotta tell me to
So, I don't need the sunrise
If we burning up slow, I'm just tryna fall with you
There's red and yellow in the sky (Yeah)
If we burning up slow, I'm just tryna fall for you
Oh, I'm just tryna fall with you
