Slowburn
Were character actors from the tower of babel
Bewildered, burnt out, hardly able
To sit astride the high wire cable
Its hard to balance, a little unstable.
Through broken eyes and contact lenses
watched you draw your future tenses
See kisses of flame blow out of your lips
Youre back telling me your apocalypse.
Dont get me wrong, Ill be strong
When the slowburn sunset come along
Youve gotta stay the night
I gotta think that you might.
Weve tried a hanful of bills and a handful of pills
Weve tried making movies from a volume of stills
But the words fell like hailstones,
Bouncing at our feet
Covering our feelings with a frozen sheet.
A chance to move, I take a shot
I get cold -- you get hot
We look outside, lyin awake
See birds breaking surface on a silent lake.
But dont get me wrong, Ill be strong
When Im back on the isle of avalon
Dont get me wrong, Ill be strong
When the slow burn sunset come along
Youve got to stay the night
Ive got to think that you might.
Dont try to make it easy, itll cut you down to size
Darlin weve got to trust in something
Were shooting down our skies
Shooting down our skies.
