Burning

THE WAR ON DRUGS · Lost In The Dream 2014 · Track 07 of 09

Written by Adam Granduciel

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 'Til you released me

Cross the bridge To redefine your pain The 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, yea we'd been through that

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 we turn the light in
