Burn Nice and Slow (The Formative Years) Songtext
von Hail the Sun

Feeding off of my cold insides
Was the doubt instilled around me
Second guessing
Not impressing
Silence will hide it

My existence is subpar when
Pity′s obsolete
Campus is closed
Students go home
I sulk in bed

But the person laying beside me, hold on
Partially saving me

Bracing the insecurities
You stayed
Nudging me gently
Thank you truly
For the love


Velvet sheets!
Place of confession
Safety blanket!
Is your gift to me

Feeding off of my nervous mind
Was the damage done inside me
Self inflicting, isolating
Capsules will hide it

Fuck the feeling I get when she tries to comfort me
What could she do?
Suffocate on 1st Avenue

This was not the way I wanted it to be
This was not the way you wanted it for me!
Taking measures to sever and resign
(On repeat, on repeat)

Take your feelings and cleanse yourself of mine
Slip away, toss my things!

Self inflicting
Undeserving
Anger will hide it


Fuck the feeling I felt when she finally had enough
To my chagrin
I watched her love for me begin to
Burn nice and slow
Burn nice and slow
Burn nice and slow

Burn up
