Burning Bright
I couldn't call you,
I don't know why.
All I know is that I, I know I tried.
I lie down beside you,
And I watch you sleep for a while.
I'm twisted up in all these blankets and sheets,
My body paralized and curled up at your feet.
And what I swore would never run out,
Is running out on me.
So come on, come on, come on, come on,
I won't break your heart no more.
Come on, come on, come on, come on,
I don't wanna do this any more.
Yeah I know, I know, I know, I know, I know.
What can I say now?
What can I do?
You got the best of me, and I the best of you.
Don't say it's faded light, if it was burning bright.
I wasted empathy and I destroyed my faith.
I still can't read your mind, but I can read your fate.
And it gets lonely, oh it gets lonely.
So come on, come on, come on, come on,
I won't break your heart no more.
Come on, come on, come on, come on,
I don't wanna do this any more.
Yeah I know, I know, I know, I know, I know.
So why do you treat me like a stranger?
Why do you treat my like a stranger?
I'm not a needle, and I'm not a thread.
And why do you feel so far away,
when you're right there in my bed?
And you won't bend and I won't be broken.
I hide in my stupid songs,
And you hide in your head.
So come on, come on, come on, come on,
I won't break your heart no more.
Come on, come on, come on, come on,
I don't wanna do this any more.
So why do you treat me like a stranger?
Why do you treat my like a stranger?
I don't know why.
All I know is that I, I know I tried.
I lie down beside you,
And I watch you sleep for a while.
I'm twisted up in all these blankets and sheets,
My body paralized and curled up at your feet.
And what I swore would never run out,
Is running out on me.
So come on, come on, come on, come on,
I won't break your heart no more.
Come on, come on, come on, come on,
I don't wanna do this any more.
Yeah I know, I know, I know, I know, I know.
What can I say now?
What can I do?
You got the best of me, and I the best of you.
Don't say it's faded light, if it was burning bright.
I wasted empathy and I destroyed my faith.
I still can't read your mind, but I can read your fate.
And it gets lonely, oh it gets lonely.
So come on, come on, come on, come on,
I won't break your heart no more.
Come on, come on, come on, come on,
I don't wanna do this any more.
Yeah I know, I know, I know, I know, I know.
So why do you treat me like a stranger?
Why do you treat my like a stranger?
I'm not a needle, and I'm not a thread.
And why do you feel so far away,
when you're right there in my bed?
And you won't bend and I won't be broken.
I hide in my stupid songs,
And you hide in your head.
So come on, come on, come on, come on,
I won't break your heart no more.
Come on, come on, come on, come on,
I don't wanna do this any more.
So why do you treat me like a stranger?
Why do you treat my like a stranger?
