Back Burner

[Verse 1]
Back in the shadows again
I'm comfortable hiding
Nobody’s paying attention
It's dark here I like it
I'm out of the spotlight
Floating in familiar places
Maybe I've lost sight
Suspended in my safe spaces
All of a sudden I've spent my time
Just surviving

[Chorus]
I'm done being on the back burner
Won't let myself slip further away
Take all that I am, put it in my own hands
Can't live my life on the back burner
I'll strike a match, igniting a flame
If I don’t get it right, I'll dance in my own light
Can't put me on the back burner

[Verse 2]
I blamed the weather
And put it all on the timing
I'vе never moved with thе seasons before
But I’m trying
I've been so cautious
Finger on a loaded lighter
In the darkness
And I want to play with fire

[Chorus]
I'm done being on the back burner
Won't let myself slip further away
Take all that I am, put it in my own hands
Can't live my life on the back burner
I'll strike a match, igniting a flame
If I don’t get it right, I'll dance in my own light
Can't put me on the back burner
