Discover the story of the song > Slow Burn – Kacey Musgraves

The protagonist describes herself as someone who was born in a rush and is constantly late, but she's okay with taking things slow. She mentions her rebellious side (piercing her nose) and her confidence in her own abilities. The chorus emphasizes her preference for taking her time and doing things her way, even if it means burning down the metaphorical house all night long. The bridge highlights the importance of doing things that feel good, while the outro hints that the protagonist sees herself as an old soul who still has a lot to learn, but is content with the slow burn.
