burn

Singer: alkaline trio

there's a lightning storm each and every night

crashing inside you like motorbikes

we toss and turn

sleep so loud

grind the teeth in our

our empty mouths

there's a forest fire burning bright

spreading quickly towards our last rites

nowhere to run

pointless to hide

just lay there and scream

pretending to try

pretending. intending to burn

pretending to fight it

everyone learns faster on fire

things took a turn

lost all desire

you live and you burn

you live and you burn

this impending doom is left deep inside

and it's haunting you each and every night

like starving wolves counting sheep

we close our eyes

pretending to sleep

descending. intending to burn

pretending to fight it

everyone learns faster on fire

things took a turn

lost all desire

you live and you burn

you live and. like hell we are anxiously waiting

like hell burning silently strong

somehow we fell down by the wayside

and somehow this hell is home

as we burn

pretending to fight it

everyone learns faster on fire

things took a turn

lost all desire

you live and you burn

you live and. like hell we are anxiously waiting

like hell burning silently strong

somehow we fell down by the wayside

and somehow this hell is home

right now

this hell is my home
