Burn Low, Rise Slow lyrics
Verse
Last light fading off the water tower
Smoke curls up past the security guard now
Floor still humming from the DJ's last drop
Feet know where to find it before my head does not
Pre-Chorus
Can you feel the fire going down
From my heels to my ankles then to the ground
Nobody's talking, nobody needs to
Just the bassline pulling me through
Chorus
Burn low, rise slow
Let go of what I know
Burn low, rise slow
Losing myself in this glow
I don't wanna find my way back home
Melt into the crowd like a stone in the foam
Verse 2
Horn section whispers through my chest now
Piano keys skipping over the rest now
Salt on my collarbone where I was sweating hard
Floor's got a pulse beating slower than my heart
Pre-Chorus
Can you feel the fire going down
From my heels to my ankles then to the ground
Nobody's talking, nobody needs to
Just the bassline pulling me through
Chorus
Burn low, rise slow
Let go of what I know
Burn low, rise slow
Losing myself in this glow
I don't wanna find my way back home
Melt into the crowd like a stone in the foam
Bridge
No clock on the wall, no name to hold
Just the bassline pulling me through the cold
Heat in my chest where the low end hits
Every doubt I got left on the first kick
Chorus
Burn low, rise slow
Let go of what I know
Burn low, rise slow
Losing myself in this glow
I don't wanna find my way back home
Melt into the crowd like a stone in the foam
