Burn Slow

[Verse 1] In the neon glow of Los Angeles nights Stealing sounds while the city ignites Mariachi ghosts through my microphone Dancing with death as we burn alone Every street corner's got a story to tell About paradise turning into hell [Chorus] La fiebre sube (The fever rises) We're all gonna burn, burn, burn No water left to learn, learn, learn How to save ourselves from yesterday While the palm trees sway, sway, sway [Verse 2] Carlos passed me that bottle of mescal Said "hermano, we're watching it all fall" Three AM philosophies in backroom bars While outside the asphalt melts the cars The city's sweating through concrete pores And I can't take this heat anymore [Bridge] Distorted trumpets in my head Playing requiems for the dead Future's already been and gone Still we keep dancing till dawn [Chorus] La fiebre sube (The fever rises) We're all gonna burn, burn, burn No water left to learn, learn, learn How to save ourselves from yesterday While the palm trees sway, sway, sway [Verse 3] Luna told me last night in tears "We've got maybe ten more years" I recorded the sound of her crying Mixed it with sirens flying This ain't no fucking lullaby Just the sound of our world saying goodbye [Outro] The heat warps everything I see Melts identity into the streets Mariachi memories fade away As tomorrow burns into today La fiebre sube, we dance alone In this fever we call home Watch it all turn into smoke This beautiful fucking joke [Final Chorus] La fiebre sube (The fever rises) We're all gonna burn, burn, burn No water left to learn, learn, learn How to save ourselves from yesterday While the palm trees sway, sway, sway (While everything fades away)
