“Burn”

“Burn”, released on At Night (2016) and Temporary Home (2017).

I usually stay against the wall
talk when needed if at all

let the ashes rise up

and I’m gonna let it

chorus

say I’m only shy, I’d be lying
and I’m sorry but I’m trying to:

if you knew me you’d know that if I
say I’m only shy, I’d be lying
and I’m sorry but I’m trying
