Burning and Burning

I’ve been a soulless child

I’ve been a soulless child

I was a messed up kid with a thorn in my side

They said ‘I bet you die young son’

‘Yeah I bet you die young’

That might be, we’ll see

If death catches up to me

So who are you trying to change my ways?

Oh, you see I’m burning and burning all the way through

‘Til I get back to you

I’m coming back to you

I’m coming back to you

I’m coming back yeah

This is a dead end town

This is a dead end town

Nothing here for an eager young man to be found

So we’re filling our whiskey

Act on bad ideas

We’ll burn this town to the ground

If that’s the way you like it son

So who are you trying to change my ways?

Oh, you see I’m burning and burning all the way through

‘Til I get back to you

I’m coming back to you

I’m coming back yeah

Restless night, I can see the light burn bright

A reckoning, I’ll return the night

And all this time we’ve been growing apart, my love

You see I’m burning and burning all the way through

‘Til I get back to you

I’m coming back to you

I’m coming back to you

I’m coming back to you

I’m coming back yeah
