Slow Burn - Travis Miguel of Atreyu

It begins with a dark glowing ember

Something black burning

It's way out of me

Searing the flesh

Pain is the only thing I feel

Scars all I see

Oh no the fire's burning my insides again

What can I do to silence my desire tonight

Flames consuming reason

Leaving only ashes left

You will catch me for regretting my decision

I can't keep telling myself

What I want to hear

I can't just close my eyes

I know that it's killing me

And it's poisoning the best in me

But I say I don't want to believe

So let me tell you more tell you more

About the lies I lead

That is how I choose to douce the flames in gasoline

Broken teeth replace the blackout

Memories in my head

Wreckage from the past haunts me

Shake me to the bone to the bone

I know it's over but I can't go home tonight

But after this I feel

As empty as the night before

Feel the pain and

Yet I'm still begging for more

Masochistic nihilistic

Urging backward thought

My life's a mess

And I can't find a way to fix it

I can't keep telling myself

What I want to hear

I can't just close my eyes

I know that it's killing me

And it's poisoning the best of me

What I see I don't want to believe

So let me tell you more tell you more

About the lies I lead

Calling calling out

The darkest reaches of my soul

Are riddled with self-doubt

Crawling crawling out

My will to fight will more than suffice

When others would lay down

It's only as dark as you make it

I know that it's killing me

And it's poisoning the best of me

But I say I don't want to believe

So let me tell you more

Tell you more

About the lies I lead
