Slow Burn Songtext
von Becca Stevens

What′s that?
What's that song I′m thinkin' of?
What's that song I′m thinkin′ of?

I'm a slow burn
And you′re a quitter
Are you mad I didn't burn out like you?
Now it′s my turn
So you're bitter
And all you wanna do is blame me
Every time you lose

You′re a tyrant
With no one to rule
How's that working out for you?
On an island
Cause you cut your lifeline
Now you're wallowing in solitude


I held on to you
Even when I saw through you
You always had it out for me
Burned down the house we built
Too proud to face the guilt
Looking for revenge
And dyin′ to rile me

Be cruel if you want to (cruel if ya want what)
What are you trying to prove?
Come at me if you′re going to (come on if you're going to)
I don′t have time for trouble like you

You're a taker (Taker!)
And I gave you so much time, how much is enough for you
And you′re dyin' (Ooh! give me some of that)
For one more fight
But you can never stick it out
Long enough to win

I held on to you
Even when I saw through you
You always had it out for me
Burned down the house we built
Too proud to face the guilt
Looking for revenge
And dyin′ to rile me


Uh-oh
Ah! I held on to you (I held on to you)
Ah! How much is enough (how much is enough for you)
Ah! I held on to you (I held on to you)

Be cruel if you want to
(You want to be cruel? You want to be cruel?)
What are you trying to prove? (What are you tryin' to prove!)
Come at me if you're going to
(You want to come at? Go on and come at!)
I don′t have time for trouble
Be cruel if you want to (cruel if ya want what)
What are you trying to prove?
Come at me if you′re going to (come on if you're going to)
Have time, trouble

Be cruel if you want to (cruel if ya want what)
What are you trying to prove?
Come at me if you′re going to (come on if you're going to)
I don′t have time for trouble, thank you

Don't stop for trouble (Won′t stop for trouble!)
Don't stop for (I ain't gotta stop for no)
Trouble like (No trouble)
Don′t stop for trouble (Trouble won′t stop for me)
I don't have time for trouble like you
