We All Have To Burn Something Song Lyrics
We All Have To Burn Something by Big Country I'm all set see I'm set straight
I got the whole thing and yeah it's great
Life's just running around and saying "hi"
And I don't have to worry, no,
Cuz I read people "yeah, no"
God's taking notes on me
Well things are off course just a little bit
Maybe it's me. Nah, that's shit.
They're getting all worried about me
Well slow slow down, or so I'm told
I'm digging a circle around a hole
Let's play Who Won't Breath
We all gotta burn something. Yeah we all gotta burn something.
See we're all just burning something. Yeah we all gotta burn something
She had a boyfriend so i'm told
Played a dumb sport, did the drama show
Her parents screamed on your knees
Trapped to bond every day's like never
I know I know things should get better
Ah, no, not another bad week
But boy boyfriend, yeah, he cheated
Something about her being mistreated
In her eyes she was only 20% there
And little by little by little
She lost her interest little by little
At an age young age she had to burn something
We all gotta burn something. Yeah we all gotta burn something.
See we're all just burning something. Yeah we all gotta burn something
So stop me while I'm tired. Go on and stop me while I'm tired.
He dug this girl from Tokyo
He wished he like the radio
He said "maybe one day I'll put some crap up there too"
See learning is never what we expect
Kinda like the way they met
Overrun by change those years can steal
And now he puts too many empty frames
In his lonely apartment he goes insane
From his life of constant action to now solitude
He said "Power's too common, don't you think, these days?"
I'd rather go back to my old ways
I'd rather go back to my simple ways"
We all gotta burn something. Yeah we all gotta burn something.
See we're all just burning something. Yeah we all gotta burn something
