Barn Burner Lyrics

I walk right up to it

Say hell yeah then screw it

It happens in the blink of my third eye

Run a little bit faster

Towards impending disaster

Turns out I'm made of plaster

My bravado's just a lie

'Cause I'm a turtle in the shell

Got a spine made out of steel

Yeah, I'm a tiny, sullen god

And I keep reinventing the wheel

But nothing matters

'Cause nothing changes

Hell yeah, everything is alright now, baby

But I eat shit whenever I go to war

But nothing matters

'Cause I don't get in life's way

Never put up a fight now, baby

I've been many things

I'll be anything

But a barn burner

Yeah, yeah

Then something happens like magic

This is where it gets tragic

'Cause here's where I decide to give up the ghost

Pick apart every action

To my dissatisfaction

Then decide to walk away before I get too close

'Cause I'm a critic and a snob

My taste completely unsatisfiable

My head's a dull, abrasive slob

And its thoughts are far from reliable

But nothing matters

'Cause nothing changes

Hell yeah, everything is alright now, baby

But I eat shit whenever I go to war

But nothing matters

'Cause I don't get in life's way

Never put up a fight now, baby

I've been many things

I'll be anything

But a barn burner

Oh, I'm not gonna get anything started

No, I'm not gonna get anything started

No, I'm not gonna get anything started

Oh no

No, I'm not gonna get anything started

Rather sit here empty and brokenhearted

Examining remains of my dearly departed

Long ago

No, I'm not gonna get anything started

I tried it last week, but my heart just farted

Even though my brain is so meticulously charted

Oh no

Yeah, I'm not gonna get anything started

I raise my hands, but the sea doesn't part

It just hammers on the beach of my head

And the sun is my halo

Yeah, but nothing matters

'Cause nothing changes

Hell yeah, everything is alright now, baby

But I eat shit whenever I go to war

Yeah, but nothing matters

'Cause I don't get in life's way

Never put up a fight now, baby

But I feel like a loser even though I don't

Know the score

Yeah, but nothing matters

'Cause nothing changes

Hell yeah, everything is alright now, baby

But I eat shit whenever I go to war

Yeah, but nothing matters

'Cause I don't get in life's way

Never put up a fight now, baby

I've been many things

I'll be anything

I've been many things

I'll be anything

But a barn burner

I just really wanna be yeah

Yeah, yeah
