Burning Out Lyrics

Set me on fire

I'm hangin on by just a thread

I need to be inspired

So won't you take my hand

Show me what's in my head

I'm burning out I swear

I feel myself fading, I'm tired and bleeding

Got no control

When it comes and goes

I've got no choice but to let it flow

Then I'm out!

No way of predicting, this thing that I'm seeking

I need a spark

Can't keep a steady flame

I know it's here, can't see in the dark

Lights out!

Like flashes of lightning, so sudden and jarring

When it's lit, it roars

Like the Phoenix I soar

Hot and wild, from the ashes I rise

I'm reborn!

Powerful, fleeting, I'm searching for meaning

What comes next

The cycle's starting again

Like chasing smoke with my cold bare hands

I'm snuffed out!

I'm burning out!

Bleed me out till there's nothing left in me

Bare my soul for the whole world to see

Bleed me out till I'm running on empty

Show me please, what it's like to be free

I feel myself fading, I'm tired and bleeding

I'm a slave to fate

No, I can't concentrate

No rhyme or reason to the mess I make

Hear me out!

No way of predicting, this thing that I'm seeking

Gasoline

Pour it out on me

Throw me a match and then set me free

Light it up!

Like flashes of lightning, so sudden and jarring

Watch me burn

Like a forest fire

Watch me destroy everything I desire

I'm fucked up!

Powerful, fleeting, I'm searching

Yeah I'm burning out!

Burn me out now

Burn me out

I wanna scream out at the top of my lungs

Can't find the words so I just give up and run

I wish the voices in my head would just stay

Maybe they'd tell me what I've needed to say

I'm burnt out

Yeah I'm burning out

Burnt out

Burning out

I feel myself fading, I'm tired and bleeding

Got no control

When it comes and goes

I've got no choice but to let it flow

Then I'm out!

No way of predicting, this thing that I'm seeking

I need a spark

Can't keep a steady flame

I know it's here, can't see in the dark

Lights out!

Like flashes of lightning, so sudden and jarring

When it's lit, it roars

Like the Phoenix I soar

Hot and wild, from the ashes I rise

I'm reborn!

Powerful, fleeting, I'm burning

Burning out!

Burnt out!
