Burn It Down Slow

"Burn It Down Slow" — Pop R&B Duet [Property Of TENBREATHSUN © — TenBreathSun Nation] [Verse 1 – Voice A] You come back like the weather Never call before you land I keep the door unlocked Even when I don't understand It's not that I forgive you It's that I don't know how to stop [Verse 1B – Voice B, answering] I never said forever I just said I'd stay a while You knew what this was The minute you first saw my smile Don't act surprised now That the fire's got no rules [Pre-Chorus – Both, stacked] We keep lighting matches Standing in the gas Say we're gonna leave it Never do, never last [Chorus – Voice A lead, Voice B chant/ad-lib] Burn it down slow Burn it down slow (watch it go) We already know how it ends We already know (do it again) You're the smoke in my lungs I'm the ash on your tongue Burn it down slow Burn it down slow [Verse 2 – Voice B] You call it passion I call it a losing game Every time you leave I say I'll never feel the same Then you text at midnight And I answer just the same [Verse 2B – Voice A, cutting back] Don't blame me for wanting What you keep dangling out You could stop this anytime But that's not what you're about We both know the ending We just keep skipping the doubt [Pre-Chorus – Both] We keep lighting matches Standing in the gas Say we're gonna leave it Never do, never last [Chorus – Voice B lead, Voice A chant/ad-lib] Burn it down slow Burn it down slow (watch it go) We already know how it ends We already know (do it again) You're the smoke in my lungs I'm the ash on your tongue Burn it down slow Burn it down slow [Bridge – Voice A / Voice B trading] (A) Maybe I like the danger (B) Maybe you like the chase (A) Maybe we're just two mirrors (B) Stuck in the same wrecked place (Both) So say it's over one more time And watch me stay anyway [Final Chorus – Both, full stack + chant hook] Burn it down slow Burn it down slow (watch it go) We already know how it ends We already know (do it again) You're the smoke in my lungs I'm the ash on your tongue Burn it down slow (burn it down slow) Burn it down slow
