Burn Slow, Fly Fast

Verse

Neon melting on the boardwalk tar

Your hand out the window catching stars

Radio static, midnight gold

Nineteen summers, never getting old

Sparklers dying in the gravel lot

We keep dancing like the ground is hot

Pre-Chorus

Tell me how long can we keep this spark

Running wild before it gets too dark

We're not asking, we already know

Chorus

Burn slow, fly fast

Nothing's built to last

So we're taking every second like it's glass

Hold tight, let go

This is all we know

Burn slow, fly fast, and let the summer go

Verse

Cherry lights strung up along the dock

Bare feet drumming on the sunburnt rock

Someone's laughing at the edge of dawn

Chasing shadows till the night is gone

Salt and gasoline, a lazy tune

We're the reckless kids who chase the moon

Pre-Chorus

Tell me how long can we keep this spark

Running wild before it gets too dark

We're not asking, we already know

Chorus

Burn slow, fly fast

Nothing's built to last

So we're taking every second like it's glass

Hold tight, let go

This is all we know

Burn slow, fly fast, and let the summer go

Bridge

Someday we'll be older, further from this shore

Chasing different sunsets, wanting one thing more

But right here, right now, we're diamonds in the haze

Nothing's ever wasted when it's burned this way

Chorus

Burn slow, fly fast

Nothing's built to last

So we're taking every second like it's glass

Hold tight, let go

This is all we know

Burn slow, fly fast, and let the summer go
