Cover art for Back Burner lyrics by August Burns Red

It make sense to me now! It's about materialism and how it only temporarily fulfills boredom and apathy. "Gather all your possessions, and smile because you've got it all. Still that empty feeling [apathy] won't go away. "

Not too sure about the parts in between but uh, " I just hope you survive the crash. " The 'crash' could mean the realisation and depression suffered from the materialism? Or it could literally mean a crash and that he hopes that the survivor only just survived enough so they can now see that they should change their ways or something. Sort of like a born-again Christian.

I DO NOT KNOW. It made more sense my mind, heh. GREAT SONG nonetheless.
