Burned Out

They say we're growing up too fast
You and I will never last
There's nothing left, and no romance
But we can try to prove them wrong

And so we tried way too hard
Forget the roof, we hit the stars
Lighting up at every bar
We fell in love now here we are

But I realise we can't stay high for too much longer
While the world is still on fire
From all this anger
Are you burning out 'cause I'm burning out?
Are you burning out?
Are you burned out? (Burned out)
Are you burning out 'cause I'm burning out?
Are you burning out?
Are you burned out? (Burned out)

So come on, dance our last dance
Because the kids don't stand a chance
Let's burn the future, kill the plants
Get out of town and join the band

And we would only write sad songs
'Cause you and I, we don't belong
Been on this road for far too long
Let's crash the car with the radio on

But I realise we can't stay high for too much longer
While the world is still on fire
From all this anger
Are you burning out 'cause I'm burning out?
Are you burning out?
Are you burned out? (Burned out)
Are you burning out 'cause I'm burning out?
Are you burning out?
Are you burned out? (Burned out)

Do you find it hard to breathe?
(A lot of smoke in California) are you burned out?
Burned out
Do you find it hard to feel?
(We're all medicated, it's a society) are you burned out?
Burned out
Do you even know what's real?
(You are fake news) are you burned out?
Burned out
Do you even notice me?

But I realise we can't stay high for too much longer
While the world is still on fire
From all this anger
Are you burning out 'cause I'm burning out?
Are you burning out?
Are you burned out? (Burned out)
Are you burning out 'cause I'm burning out?
Are you burning out?
Are you burned out? (Burned out)
