About the single
On 7 October 2016, Burn was released as the first single from Anouk's album Fake It Till We Die, released two weeks later on 21 October 2016.
Two days ahead of the release, Anouk teased the song on Instagram with a video of herself lying on the floor with her cat Aap, trying out a new selfie stick: "I thought I'd try it out with Aap... I thought I'd let you hear a bit, see if you liked it." The official music video followed the morning after the single's release.
Burn was released as a digital download only. No physical formats are known, and the release contained just the single track.

Burn motherfucker, burn motherfucker
Burn in hell
The rage roads in my soul and I can tell
I want you to
Burn motherfucker, burn motherfucker
Burn in hell
For bringin' me down and poppin' my bubble shell
You are taking up too much space
Cold and heartless
Like I won't behave
I once was your goddess
Reduced to a slave
I can't live behind a lie
Do you really want to do this
And fake it 'til we die
Burn motherfucker, burn motherfucker
Straight to hell
Pretend to be my lover lover
But it don't sit well
Burn motherfucker, burn motherfucker
Burn in hell
I'm amazed how many keep foolin' themselves
You are taking up too much space
Cold and heartless
Like I won't behave
Once your goddess
Reduced to a slave
We can't live behind a lie
Do you really want to do this
And fake it 'til we die
I don't care anymore
You really never had my back
The white pearls I once wore
They all turned to black
Now I know I should've never trust an innocent face
'Cause it will never give me the satisfaction that I crave
So let's fake it 'til we die
Burn in hell
The rage roads in my soul and I can tell
I want you to
Burn motherfucker, burn motherfucker
Burn in hell
For bringin' me down and poppin' my bubble shell
You are taking up too much space
Cold and heartless
Like I won't behave
I once was your goddess
Reduced to a slave
I can't live behind a lie
Do you really want to do this
And fake it 'til we die
Burn motherfucker, burn motherfucker
Straight to hell
Pretend to be my lover lover
But it don't sit well
Burn motherfucker, burn motherfucker
Burn in hell
I'm amazed how many keep foolin' themselves
You are taking up too much space
Cold and heartless
Like I won't behave
Once your goddess
Reduced to a slave
We can't live behind a lie
Do you really want to do this
And fake it 'til we die
I don't care anymore
You really never had my back
The white pearls I once wore
They all turned to black
Now I know I should've never trust an innocent face
'Cause it will never give me the satisfaction that I crave
So let's fake it 'til we die
