The burn
I thought about
Leaving- but I couldn't even get outta bed
Hitchin'- but I couldn't get a rid outta town
Now anyone who really wanted me to be down
Come around
Though about
Singin'- but I couldn't remember all of the words
Breakin'- but I couldn't get the pieces apart
Laughin- never knowing what the joke was about
Now im down
And I wonder how I never got the burn
And if im ever gonna learn
How lonely people make a life
One strain at a time
Forgot about
Everything and everyone I needed before
Trying to get a handle on a reason to shine
Pickin' up the pieces that are falling take time
So I wonder how I never got the burn
And if im ever gonna learn
How lonely people make a life
One strain at a time
And still shine
