Burning

On a drive, I'm taking backroads

High against where the rivers are flowing

I didn't think that our love had grown

You had me dead to rights

Hey, I'm trying to get some rest

To keep on moving

How you been, you looking back?

You tried to change your burning boat

Until you realized what you were up against

I spent all those nights

Just trying to take you home

Till you released me

Cross the bridge

To redefine your pain

Then the answer is in your heart

Wide awake

I rearrange the way I listen in the dark

Dreaming of starting up again

So if you look, you'll find yourself

You're not the demon in the dark

That you and I, yeah, we'd been through that

Oh, can you rectify

All the time it took you

Away from choosing?

So as you find yourself flying high up there

When you release me from your heart again

Woo!

I'm just a burning man trying to keep the ship

From turning over again

Cross the rich derivative of pain

Crush the burning in your heart

Wide awake

To redefine the way you listen in the dark

Dreaming, starting

Like a stranded kid in a doorway

Just burning

Yeah, if I take the light of day

Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah

Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah

Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
