Burn Lyrics

A memory of the way that you were in a time where all we knew could tell
It's not about the skin that you're in, but the one inside who wears it well
If a troubled souls what you're into then welcome to the show
You keep your secrets held close to your chest, but you wish we all could know
We're trying to find all the words we could say, but oh, you need to let us in

Burning it a both ends baby
Where is the girl that I once knew?
Traded in for quick, not painless
You can't afford, you can't afford what you've been through
I've got to say I don't see much control in the way that you've been seeking fame
Don't give it up for the sake of a touch, keep them closed and please don't stay the same
I see the way you spend your faith, I watch you spit some fire out
Not far, but near, the way you fear, tell me how you're feeling now

Burning it a both ends baby
Where is the girl that I once knew?
Traded in for quick, not painless
You can't afford, you can't afford what you've been through
You're not defined by the grave at your feet
So tear down these walls for a chance to see

Burning it a both ends baby
Where is the girl that I once knew?
Traded in for quick, not painless
You can't afford, you can't afford what you've been through
