Play the game of indecision
Come what may she knows it isn't just his voice on the line
One final time she hears thunder
Precious lies when she played her part
Still she tries, because hope dies hard with broken wings
She can feel the sting like a backhand over the telephone
In her eyes shimmers twilight,
Drivin' hard, it gives up the fight
And she fights it back
Knowing that the dam could break wide open
Burning down inside
Nobody wants to be lonely
Burning down inside
The harder they come, the harder she falls
To her face I show my arm
I walk away before I do more harm
And with the damage done
She won't know where to run or who to run to
Burning down inside
Nobody wants to be lonely
Burning down inside
The harder they come, the harder she falls
Turnin' like a spinning wheel
Dancin' on her head
Tries so hard to walk away
She falls in love instead
My head says
We should always go our own ways
never get too close when she can hear my heart
If she comes apart, I'll be waiting
Burning down inside
Nobody wants to be lonely
Burning down inside
The harder they come, the harder she falls
Burning down inside
Nobody wants to be lonely
Burning down inside
The harder they come, the harder she falls
Burning down inside
The harder she falls
Burning down inside
Burning down inside
The harder they come, the harder she falls
Burning down inside
Burning down inside
Burning down inside
The harder they come, the harder she falls...
Come what may she knows it isn't just his voice on the line
One final time she hears thunder
Precious lies when she played her part
Still she tries, because hope dies hard with broken wings
She can feel the sting like a backhand over the telephone
In her eyes shimmers twilight,
Drivin' hard, it gives up the fight
And she fights it back
Knowing that the dam could break wide open
Burning down inside
Nobody wants to be lonely
Burning down inside
The harder they come, the harder she falls
To her face I show my arm
I walk away before I do more harm
And with the damage done
She won't know where to run or who to run to
Burning down inside
Nobody wants to be lonely
Burning down inside
The harder they come, the harder she falls
Turnin' like a spinning wheel
Dancin' on her head
Tries so hard to walk away
She falls in love instead
My head says
We should always go our own ways
never get too close when she can hear my heart
If she comes apart, I'll be waiting
Burning down inside
Nobody wants to be lonely
Burning down inside
The harder they come, the harder she falls
Burning down inside
Nobody wants to be lonely
Burning down inside
The harder they come, the harder she falls
Burning down inside
The harder she falls
Burning down inside
Burning down inside
The harder they come, the harder she falls
Burning down inside
Burning down inside
Burning down inside
The harder they come, the harder she falls...
