Lyrics:

Slow Burn

Verse 1
No sparks flying in the dark
No sirens, no alarms
Just a heat beneath the skin
That never fully calms

Every slight I let slide
Every word I swallowed whole
Every time I said I’m fine
While it hollowed out my soul

Pre-Chorus
It’s not a wildfire
It’s not a crash
It’s the kind of damage
That builds in ash

Chorus
This is a slow burn
No flames in sight
Just a quiet heat
That lasts all night

Slow burn
Under my skin
Every time I let it slide
It settles in

It’s not loud
It doesn’t scream
It just changes
Everything

Slow burn

Verse 2
I keep smiling in the room
Keep playing my part
But there’s a pressure in my chest
Like it’s tearing me apart

You don’t see it in my face
You don’t hear it in my tone
But every time I bite my tongue
I feel it grow

Pre-Chorus
It’s not a riot
It’s not a fight
It’s what happens
When you’re quiet too long at night

Chorus
This is a slow burn
No sudden break
Just a steady crack
That doesn’t shake

Slow burn
It never shows
Till one day
Everybody knows

It’s not fire in the sky
It’s the ground giving way
After years
Of holding weight

Slow burn

Bridge
Maybe I should’ve said it
Maybe I should’ve fought
Instead of letting everything
Turn to something it’s not

You can only hold a match
So long in your hand
Before it leaves
A permanent brand

It’s not if
It’s when

Final Chorus
This is a slow burn
And I feel the rise
No more swallowing
No more disguise

Slow burn
But I won’t explode
I’ll turn this heat
Into something I control

It’s not the end
It’s the turn
From quiet damage
To slow burn

Outro
It doesn’t happen all at once
It builds
