A Burning House Songtext

A Burning House Joe Woodard

A burning house, a lasting flame
Come face to face, the heat remains
We′re never the same
A flickering in dead of night
A lived-in house can't take the heat
On Montgomery street

A fine piece of wood has been sacrificed
In the altar of ashes
In inches of losing the stuff of life
It could singe your eyelashes


A burning house, a charcoal room
A learning curve relayed too soon
A calm laid to rest
You see the hole, the fire′s chest
You feel the force that gets the best of
The feel of no motion

Feather and Robinson and Luis
All caught in a smoke screen
Bruce in the back, lost to REM
Awakens to screaming
Awakens to a burning house

A burning house, a lasting flame
Come face to face, the heat remains
It's always the same
