Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Ash on my tongue
Eyes like a dimmed-down screen
I chase the caffeine ghosts
Just to feel anything
Calendar bleeding red
All of my nights on fire
Every "I'm fine" I send
Is just smoke, just wire
[Pre-Chorus]
Can you hear it in my throat?
Every word, a warning note
Heart knocking like it wants out
Like it wants out
[Chorus]
Burnout
I'm a matchhead losing color
Burnout
Every breath tastes like rubber
Talking to the ghost in the mirror
(It’s just me now, just me now)
Burnout
I can feel the edges fraying
Burnout
But my body keeps obeying
Running on the echo and the whisper
Till I fade out
[Verse 2]
I rap to the bathroom tiles
Spit truths that I choke in calls
Shadows lip-sync back my lines
Like they know how the curtain falls
Friends say "you’re killing it"
They don’t see the killing part
Laugh tracks in my DMs
Silence chewing on my heart
[Pre-Chorus]
Can you hear it in my laugh?
Cracks cutting every half
Heartbeat pacing like a crowd
Screaming too loud
[Chorus]
Burnout
I'm a matchhead losing color
Burnout
Every breath tastes like rubber
Talking to the ghost in the mirror
(It’s just me now, just me now)
Burnout
I can feel the edges fraying
Burnout
But my body keeps obeying
Running on the echo and the whisper
Till I fade out
[Bridge]
[Beat drops to sparse groove, whispered doubles under lead]
Work harder, run faster
They crown you, then they cast you
I’m a halo made of high beams
On an empty road
If I slam on the brakes
Will anyone know? (anyone know?)
[Chorus]
Burnout
I'm a matchhead losing color
Burnout
Every breath tastes like rubber
Talking to the ghost in the mirror
(It’s just me now, just me now)
Burnout
I can feel the edges fraying
Burnout
But my body keeps obeying
Running on the echo and the whisper
Till I fade out
Till I fade out (burnout)
