Burning at Both Ends Songtext
von Sleep On It

It′s a fading light we follow
A bitter pill to swallow
But the feeling never left for me and you
(Feeling never left for me and you)
It's a reckless love I′m feeling
Like everything is fleeting
Give me something I can sink my teeth into

I won't let you bring me down (let you bring me down)
Feel the ground under my feet
While my head is in the clouds (head is in the clouds)
I'm drowning out the sound

Where do you go?
When the one thing that you know
Isn′t what you always wanted it to be
(What you always wanted it to be)
Where do you go?
When there′s no room left to grow
And you're blocking out the melody
And all that′s left is memory


With all I've been concealing
It should have been revealing
That there′s something under every word I say
(Something under every word)
As the sun sets on this chapter
The fire's fading faster
But I will never let it fade away

I won′t let you bring me down (let you bring me down)
Feel the ground under my feet
While my head is in the clouds (head is in the clouds)
I'm drowning out the sound

Where do you go?
When the one thing that you know
Isn't what you always wanted it to be
(What you always wanted it to be)
Where do you go?
When there′s no room left to grow
And you′re blocking out the melody
And all that's left is memory

I won′t let you bring me down
I'm drowning out the sound


I won′t let you bring me down
(You're blocking out the melody)
I′m drowning out the sound
(And all that's left is memory)
I won't let you bring me down
(You′re blocking out the melody)
I′m drowning out the sound

Where do you go?
When the one thing that you know
Isn't what you always wanted it to be (what you always wanted it to be)
Where do you go?
When there′s no room left to grow
And you're blocking out the melody (blocking out the melody)

And all that′s left is memory
You're blocking out the melody
And all that′s left is memory
