Lyrics

Backburner

Once again I find my head in the sand
We start a flame and she’s unaware
Trauma stays and never leaves
That’s baggage on her
And baggage on me

Well this chemistry
Yeah
She’s got me pulled in
And I can’t help but stare
But are we the real thing
I don’t know
But every time she greets me at her door
I’m filled with confidence
Enough to dream and not to see
The hard truth of her and me

Stockholm syndrome
makes for blind desire
We light the smoke
For something higher
So I hold her close
To keep the fire
She cries out
From all the liars

So put me on the backburner
Put me on the back
Put me on the backburner
You scorch me and I like it hot
Put me on the back
Put me on the backburner
I thought we were compatible baby
Put me on the back
Put me on the back burner
But I guess it’s all for not

We met at a friends
And I couldn’t steer clear
Took a chance and pulled up a chair
Conversation came with ease
Naturally in the warm night breeze
Well this chemistry
Yeah
She’s got me all crazy
And I wanna believe
But are we the real thing
I don’t know
But when she turned to kiss me
Under the moon
I could’ve sworn that this made sense
And the love I felt was real
This is how we heal

Stockholm syndrome
makes for blind desire
We light the smoke
For something higher
So I hold her close
To keep the fire
She cries out
From all the liars

So put me on the backburner
Put me on the back
Put me on the backburner
You scorch me and I like it hot
Put me on the back
Put me on the backburner
I thought we were compatible baby
Put me on the back
Put me on the back burner
But I guess it’s all for not

So put me on the backburner
Put me on the back
Put me on the backburner
You scorch me and I like it hot
Put me on the back
Put me on the backburner
I thought we were compatible baby
Put me on the back
Put me on the back burner
But I guess it’s all for not
But I guess it’s all for not
But I guess it’s all for not
