Burn Lyrics

Cover art for Burn lyrics by Madi Diaz

Is it "burn now" or "burn out"? I figured it was "burn out," and "too many stars stretching over the horizon" meant like, too many fish in the sea, or too many distractions; and that the "love" she's calling out to is hidden in all those stars.

This is probably super cheesy, but: I really relate to that because I don't know who the person for me is; I don't think I've ever met that person who's the perfectly-fitting puzzle piece; and I feel like she's just somewhere I can't see her, and I don't know where to start looking for her -

"...now all I want is for you to show me how".

It's hard to find the star your looking for when there are countless others which look pretty much the same. Anyway, I thought "let 'em burn out" was like, a wish that all the other distractions would just not be distractions anymore, and the one would be obvious.

That could be WAY off, though.

My Opinion

ericdburton, I really like your perspective. Makes sense to me.
