"Slow Burn" lyrics - SON VOLT

SON VOLT
"Slow Burn"
(Jay Farrar)

It's been a long way around
Full circle feet on the ground
There's no fool like a new fool
No empathy refined from hell

[Chorus 1:]
Not going back to tracks left behind
Hopes of heaven on high
With irons in the fire

Close on the heels
Months of heart-in-mouth days
Slow burn awakening
Foggy dreams of daylight

[Chorus 2:]
We've watched souls feed on the bottom
Tilting at windmills
For way too long

[Outro:]
With a heart like yours, you'll withstand the fight
Every tunnel reaches the light
With a heart like yours, you'll withstand the fight
Every tunnel reaches the light
