Burned - The Talbott Brothers

Been burned and with both feet on the ground I've learned that it's painful comin' down No use runnin' away And there's no time left to stay Now I'm finding out that it's so confusin' No time left and I know I'm losin' Flashed and I think I'm fallin' down Crashed and my ears can't hear a sound No use runnin' away And there's no time left to stay Now I'm finding out that it's so confusin' No time left and I know I'm losin' Now I'm finding out that it's so confusin' No time left and I know I'm losin' Burned and with both feet on the ground I've learned that it's painful comin' down No use runnin' away And there's no time left to stay Now I'm finding out that it's so confusin' No time left and I know I'm losin'

Burned off in the heat of an afternoon After six weeks straight soaked to the bone I was trembling, wondering could that knob still turn By this ash hand, or would the motion mask the room in a grey winter Does the silence and the sill know When will the wind blow? When will the wind blow? When will it burn off? When will it burn off? When will it burn off? When will it burn off? When will it burn off? When will it burn off? When will it burn off? When will it burn off? Shaken, but couldn't shake it off of me Saw it, cloud of levity You were the nightingale, I was the wretched rail that takes the train away To chase elusive dollar on some breathless day And then it burns off And then it burns off And then it burns off And then it burns off And then it burns off Why does it burn off Why does it burn off I must take a drink before I meet the man I am said to become Intertia's crocodile opens the door and you're eclipsed by the sun Burned off in the heat of an afternoon After six weeks straight soaked to the bone

He was certain So was I There was comfort in her sighs Dreams and ideas should not be the same thing You waited smiling for this Oh, she'd wanted if she knew She could take it I thought too Be careful, be cautious but you just wished harder You waited smiling for this But they love you Over and over They love you Thousands and thousands of eyes Just like mine Aching to find who they are Oh, they love you Oh, You can feel how they love you Coated and warm But that's all they can do Words only get through if they're sharp Oh, how fitting for one so fake Make me a fairy Whatever it takes And just like a tale my dream was a scam You waited smiling for this I am burnt out I smell of smoke It sips through her cracks and so I start to choke Sentences sit in her mouth that are templated You waited smiling for this But they love you Over and over They love you Thousands and thousands of eyes Just like mine Aching to find who they are Oh, they love you Oh, You can feel how they love you Coated and warm But that's all they can do Words only get through if they're sharp Oh maybe I'll talk about it Maybe I'll talk about it I can just talk about it (I can just talk about it) I'll never talk about it (I'll never talk about it) No, I can not talk about it Don't build hope on something broken I am not cartoon Cry for help I am not joking I might just leave soon Don't build hope on something broken I am not cartoon Cry for help I am not joking I might just leave soon

What makes the world stop turning Is yet the touch of your skin I couldn't be further from you But you're still right here I caught a plane to Portland For a few days of work My heart stays heavy on you And you're on my shirt All the in between Keeps us on our feet Through the day to day and dreams We'll find our ordinary The hope we carry some days Feels like a burden But this blood inside our veins was Paid for with purpose There's a ghost in these bones and it's willing my soul I feel it like a fire To let my love pour over you darling Is my one desire All the in between Keeps us on our feet Through the day to day and the dreams We'll find our ordinary

Rivers winding round words in my head Shivering pines say that summer is dead Chest feels hollow and my hands are numb Do my best to swallow all the things I've done When you break your back but you still don't have bread You won't go back on the things that you've said You bleed your heart out and it takes every drop You've come too far now to ever stop Wash me in the water and I'll never go back Even when I'm walking through Deadman Pass You can't trust a man because he'll just let you down Crooked and twisted he grows from the ground From dust we came and dust we shall return From dust we came and dust we shall return Wash me in the water and I'll never go back... Even when I'm walking through Deadman Pass Wash me in the water and I'll never go back... Even when I'm walking through Deadman Pass
