Burning The Days
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
You feel like you can smell it on your skin
You feel like people see it and
They don't let you in
They make it look so easy
To be everything you wanted, but you
You made mistakes you can't undo
Well do you ever wonder where it ends
Just when you think you're free
It all starts over again
But do you have to fight
I love you thought you're broken inside
And you can spend your life
Burning your days, just trying to find
A state of grace
The love that won't fade away
The knot that holds
Do you even remеmber who you were
A bright spirit
A soldiеr moved by nothing on earth
TV and fairy tales
Just wanna be like everyone else
But you can lose yourself
Burning the days
Just trying to find a state of grace
The love that won’t fade away
The knot that holds
Tear the world apart
Looking for something in the dark
To fill that hole in your heart
So dark and cold
Running down the clock
So wildly, you're chasing after
Something so right
And it's just out of sight
Turn back to me now
'Cause I'm not a dreamer
I stand alive
Before your eyes
TV and fairy tales
Just want to be like everyone else
But you can lose yourself
Burning the days
Just trying to find a state of grace
The love that won't fade away
The knot that holds
Tear the world apart
Looking for something in the dark
To fill that hole in your heart
So dark and cold
Burning the days
Just trying to find a state of grace
The love that won't fade away
The knot that holds
