Abigail Morris on Burn Alive, “This was the first song that existed in the band—we’ve been opening the set with it the entire time. Lyrically, it always felt like a mission statement. I wrote it just after my father passed away, and it was the idea of, ‘Let me make my grief a commodity'—this kind...
[Verse 1]
Wine is on your blouse
You think it's so romantic
But in reality
We’re both just addicts
[Chorus]
I am not the girl I set out to be
Let me make my grief a commodity
Do what I can to survive
There is candle wax melting in my veins
So I keep myself standing in your flames
Burn, burn me alive
[Verse 2]
I am at the stake
Petrol, my perfume
Bite marks on my back
I never could say no
You don't wanna hurt me
But I want you to
I'd break off my rib
To make another you
[Pre-Chorus]
You made me bite my tongue
And now there’s blood in my glass
Will you buy me a new onе?
This is too good to last
[Chorus]
I am not the girl I set out to be
Lеt me make my grief a commodity
Do what I can to survive
There is candle wax melting in my veins
So I keep myself standing in your flames
Burn, burn me alive
[Outro]
Burn me (I am not the girl I set out to be)
Alive (Let me make my grief a commodity)
Burn me alive (Do what I can to survive)
Burn me (There is candle wax melting in my veins)
Alive (So I keep myself standing in your flames)
Burn me (Burn me alive)
Burn, burn me alive
