Lyrics

Short Fuse Burning

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.

These are all reasons why

I'll be exploding tonight

And why this chip on my shoulder

Feels like a mile wide

It's from the overwork

Overtime compromise

So I'm looking tonight

For some peace of mind

Maybe then I'll find

Some strength inside

'Cause I've lost any hope of ever changing

I'm a short fuse burning

I'm a short fuse burning

And remember who I who I used to be

Because this one-trick pony's

So strung on routine

Yeah, stuck on repeat

Like you wouldn't even believe

So I'm looking tonight

For some peace of mind

Maybe then I'll find

Some strength inside

'Cause I've lost any hope of ever changing

I'm a short fuse burning

I'm a short fuse burning

Hey, everybody don't forget me

Forget me

Hey, everybody don't forget me

I forgot who I used to be

And I'm a short fuse burning

I'm so close to exploding

So everybody don't forget me

I forgot who I used to be

So I'm looking tonight

For some peace of mind

Maybe then I'll find

Some strength inside

'Cause I've lost any hope of ever changing

I'm a short fuse burning

I'm a short fuse burning

Hey, everybody don't forget me

Forget me

Hey, everybody don't forget me

I forgot who I used to be

And I'm a short fuse burning

I'm so close to exploding

Hey, everybody don't forget me

I forgot who I used to be
