Burning Lyrics – The War on Drugs

    Burning Lyrics – The War on Drugs

    [Verse 1]
    On a drive, I’m takin’ back roads
    High against where the rivers are flowin’
    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 movin’

    [Verse 2]
    How you been? You looking back?
    You tried to change your burnin’ boat
    Until you realized what you were up against
    I spent all those nights just trying to take you in
    ‘Til you released me

    [Chorus]
    Cross the bridge to redefine your pain
    When the answer’s in your heart
    Wide awake, I rearrange the way I listen in the dark
    Dreamin’, startin’
    Up again

    [Verse 3]
    So if you look, you’ll find yourself
    You’re not the demon in the dark
    But you and I, yeah, we’ve been through that
    Oh, can you rectify all the time it took you
    Away from choosin’?

    [Verse 4]
    So as you find yourself flyin’ high up there
    When you release me from your heart again (Woo!)
    I’m just a burnin’ man tryin’ to keep the shit
    From turnin’ over again

    [Chorus]
    Cross the rich, derivative of pain
    Crush the burnin’ in your heart
    Wide awake to redefine the way you listen in the dark
    Dreamin’, startin’
    Like a stranded kid in a doorway
    Just burnin’

    [Post-Chorus]
    Yeah, if I take the light of day

    [Outro]
    Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
    Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
    Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
    Yeah, yeah, yeah
    Woo-hoo!
    Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
    Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
    Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
    Yeah, yeah, yeah
    Woo-hoo!
    Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
    Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
    Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
    Yeah, yeah, yeah
    Woo-hoo!
    Woo-hoo!
