Burn (Stripped) Lyrics by Cortéz

Stripped - EP

2017

[Verse 1]
Distance
Waiting outside your house for an explanation
I never got it
Commitment
The promises we made never existed
Oh, this is not a friendship
[Pre-Chorus 1]
But we lived in this house that's not a home
And I picked up the pieces on my own
And you left me with memories all alone
Now our house is on fire, but you don't even know
[Refrain]
Burn down slowly
Burned down slowly
Burned down slowly
Burn
Burn down slowly
[Verse 2]
I'm a lightweight
And everything you do tends to effect me
But there's no longer two of us in this dream
Was I the one to blame? Did you even love me?
Cause this love is smoking
[Pre-Chorus 2]
But we lived in this house that's not a home
And I picked up our pieces on my own
And you hate that you left me all alone
Now the both of us are tired, but we don't let it show
[Refrain]
Burn down slow...
Burned down
Slow...
Slowly...
Burn down slowly
[Chorus 1]
I hate what we've become, it's tearing us apart
Drifting under the sun, we're falling from the stars, yeah
Baby, I can't deny you're not the only one
Cause I burned this house with you to spare us all the heartache
Spare us all the heartache
Cause I burned this house with you to spare us all the heartbreak
[Bridge]
Burned it
You lived in a house and was never around so you burned it
I lived in this house but neglected my vows, now it's burning
We moved in this house and never thought about how we'd burn it
Now it's burning
[Chorus 2]
Whoa, whoa, yeah
Not the only one...
Spare us all the heartache
Spare us all the heartache
Spare us all the heartache
Yeah, cause we burned it down
We burned this down
[Outro]
Distance
Waiting outside your house for an explanation
I still never got it
Commitment
The promises we made never existed
Oh, this is not a friendship...
