Burn/Out Lyrics

It's an affliction I am telling you right now

These effeminate walls I built are crumbling right down

Try to keep up dear, I have a lost you in the crowd

What newfound power time to take this system down

Try to tone it down boy you might think you're smooth

I bet you think you're precious, well I'm not in the mood

A lesson in seduction- have you nothing to lose?

Quiet your assumptions, I'll show you what I do

Just gotta bat my eyes, kick back- no lie

Are your strange delusions running dry?

And I bet it drives you crazy, knowing you can't faze me

Say the wrong thing or wear the wrong dress

Every interaction hurts my chest

My patience wanes- I must confess (but I digress)

Manic pixie dream girl, that's all I'll ever be

Live to just define you and take things graciously

All I'll do is love you, let this dream run free

Cater such delusions- I'm your fantasy

It's an affliction I am telling you right now

These effeminate walls I built are crumbling right down

Try to keep up dear, I have a lost you in the crowd

What newfound power time to take this system down

It's like I'm asking for it- is that right?

There's no way you could help it that night

One night to discover, one moment to give in

One act to uncover the truth that lies within

Take it back to the days when I didn't understand

Those lustful looks or subtle reprimands

Were all made to condition me partitioning my fury into subtleties

A legacy left to fester, fix, and bleed

I don't, I don't want to know

Try to justify it even though

Its coming off as creepy and messing with my flow

I wish you'd take a hint and just go

It's an affliction I am telling you right now

These effeminate walls I built are crumbling right down

Try to keep up dear, I have a lost you in the crowd

What newfound power time to take this system down

It's an affliction such injustice goes allowed

These effeminate walls I built have crumbled on right down

I can't keep up dear, I am drowning in the crowd

This newfound power- I will take this system down
