Burning Candles
There's still cards on the table from when we played Risk
You took the victory and I took the hit
And there's a hole in the wall here that I tried to fix
But it took too long and now I'm used to it
The winter's getting under my skin
I'm burning the candle at both ends
The snow's piling up on the pavement outside as I'm penning a letter that's not mine to write
You're in California having the time of your life. Got a taste of that freedom, left your old life behind
The winter's a game I can't win
I'm burning the candle at both ends
I watch the news in the evenings. It's another silly war
between kings and their traitors, but who's suffered more?
It's just noise in the background for the drinks that I poured
I got lost in the amber, it don't take much anymore
I'm burning the lights out again
Taking stock of the sins I commit
The winter's getting under my skin
I'm burning the candle at both ends
There's still cards on the table from when we played Risk
You took the victory and I took the hit
You took the victory and I took the hit
And there's a hole in the wall here that I tried to fix
But it took too long and now I'm used to it
The winter's getting under my skin
I'm burning the candle at both ends
The snow's piling up on the pavement outside as I'm penning a letter that's not mine to write
You're in California having the time of your life. Got a taste of that freedom, left your old life behind
The winter's a game I can't win
I'm burning the candle at both ends
I watch the news in the evenings. It's another silly war
between kings and their traitors, but who's suffered more?
It's just noise in the background for the drinks that I poured
I got lost in the amber, it don't take much anymore
I'm burning the lights out again
Taking stock of the sins I commit
The winter's getting under my skin
I'm burning the candle at both ends
There's still cards on the table from when we played Risk
You took the victory and I took the hit
