Book Burning Songtext
von Common Sage

It′s hard to keep running away from
The fires I leave behind that cloud the air
Let's sit here and wait for the morning
And watch me disappear again

Can you hear me from way up there?
Can′t you see I'm trying to hold on?

It's too late to mend relations
And I′ll make the same mistakes I made before
The sun is slowly falling
So light a match to last the night


Can you hear me from way up there?
Can′t you see I'm trying to hold on?
I know they′ll take me away from here
And before i go, I'll burn all that I know out in the backyard

(So when I go will you leave a light on?)
Can you hear me?
(Just so I know that there′s still a place for you?)
Can't you see im trying to move on?
(So when I go will you leave a light on?)
I know they′ll take me
(Just so I know that there's still a place for you?)
And before I go, I'll burn all that I know out in the backyard
