If It Burns
Jo, I wouldn't take it any other way
Yeah, I can recall words from a school nurse
"If it don't burn, it don't work. It's not getting better"
Well, I think that I'm getting better
Shouldn't I
Not be fine?
No more waiting around on the world to show up on its own
I learned that it hurts
To let one leg fall in but still hold out on the other
Cause there's someone who's not quite as weathered
Out there
Who cares?
Face to the curb
I've been crawling forever
And they say
"If it burns, then it's getting better"
Well, I told you I'd leave, I was through
Why did you stick around?
I hold all the things that I've done right in my chest
Next to the shirt that for some reason I kept
I don't wanna forget the things that I miss
And the things I regret from back then
Up to right now
Face to the curb
I've been crawling forever
And they say
"If it burns, then it's getting better"
Well, I told you I'd leave, I was through
Why did you stick around?
Yeah
Somehow
I let you down
And why
Oh, did you stick around?
Why did you stick around?
Why'd you stay?
Yeah, I can recall words from a school nurse
"If it don't burn, it don't work. It's not getting better"
Well, I think that I'm getting better
Shouldn't I
Not be fine?
No more waiting around on the world to show up on its own
I learned that it hurts
To let one leg fall in but still hold out on the other
Cause there's someone who's not quite as weathered
Out there
Who cares?
Face to the curb
I've been crawling forever
And they say
"If it burns, then it's getting better"
Well, I told you I'd leave, I was through
Why did you stick around?
I hold all the things that I've done right in my chest
Next to the shirt that for some reason I kept
I don't wanna forget the things that I miss
And the things I regret from back then
Up to right now
Face to the curb
I've been crawling forever
And they say
"If it burns, then it's getting better"
Well, I told you I'd leave, I was through
Why did you stick around?
Yeah
Somehow
I let you down
And why
Oh, did you stick around?
Why did you stick around?
Why'd you stay?
