Lyrics Slash/Burn - THAO, Thao & The Get Down Stay Down

Slash/Burn

A little slash, a little burn
A little never to return
And then, and then
I break the back of the old days
I wake from sleep to watch you stay
Look at my posture, how I sway
But I am an arrow to you, babe
In my youth I grew used to the truth didn’t I
That they moved like they could lose a love like mine
In my youth I grew used to the truth didn’t I
That they moved like they could lose a love like mine
And then, and then
I’ve spent my life saving, by design
Do you figure you could use
A love like mine
A little slash, a little burn
A little never to return
I break the back of the old days
I wake from sleep to watch you stay
Look at my posture, how I sway
But I am an arrow to you, babe
Look at my posture, how I sway
But I am an arrow to you, babe
