Burning Slowly by Treistemm Lyrics
[Verse 1]
I’m shining like glitter, I glow like a prism
And yet I’m so bitter, I cry to a rhythm
Can’t find a way out, locked myself in a prison
I can’t take the heat and I’m stuck in the kitchen
I really hate you, yet you’re forgiven
Made me feel like I’m not there like magician
Making me feel bad about my ambition
That’s because you were scared of my decision
Scared of the change that I’ll bring to the cosmos
Thoughts are all over the place like Picasso
Fragments of sanity, The Life of Pablo
I’m the canvas, who’s the painter?
Feeling anxious, I’m in danger
Look at myself, see a stranger
Blood red nose, not like a reindeer
[Chorus]
I have been waiting for love, my whole life, but
You have to find your own love, deep inside of your heart
I have been waiting for love, my whole life, but
You have to find your own love, deep inside of your heart
[Verse 2]
I was soft in high school, emotional baggage
And just like a tattoo, got permanent damage
Feel the pain like voodoo, I’m hurting but I manage
Unhealthily coping, cold inside I need a jacket
People think I’m different, I nod in agreement
Stressing over nothing, tried to chill out with my demons
Fifth grade I was dreaming, and sixth grade, the bullies beat me
Got back on my feet, and by 10th grade I had achievements
But none of that matters if I can’t live on to see it
Yeah, the bad outweighs the good, I’m sorry but I really mean it
Sorry for saying sorry, my bad habits are my weakness
I love myself, not the world around me, that’s my secret
[Bridge]
Damn, nothing you can do when life gives a bad hand
Situation critical, the shit has hit the fan
And it felt through, and I don’t know what to
Cause I got myself, and my cellphone, and you
[Chorus]
I have been waiting for love, my whole life, but
You have to find your own love, deep inside of your heart
I have been waiting for love, my whole life, but
You have to find your own love, deep inside of your heart
[Outro]
And I just want everyone to know, that
It’s okay to say “fuck all that” and follow your own path
I’m shining like glitter, I glow like a prism
And yet I’m so bitter, I cry to a rhythm
Can’t find a way out, locked myself in a prison
I can’t take the heat and I’m stuck in the kitchen
I really hate you, yet you’re forgiven
Made me feel like I’m not there like magician
Making me feel bad about my ambition
That’s because you were scared of my decision
Scared of the change that I’ll bring to the cosmos
Thoughts are all over the place like Picasso
Fragments of sanity, The Life of Pablo
I’m the canvas, who’s the painter?
Feeling anxious, I’m in danger
Look at myself, see a stranger
Blood red nose, not like a reindeer
[Chorus]
I have been waiting for love, my whole life, but
You have to find your own love, deep inside of your heart
I have been waiting for love, my whole life, but
You have to find your own love, deep inside of your heart
