Don't Burn Me Up
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.
don't you get tired, baby
it's almost morning
can't you control your desire
????
compulsive liar
you've been coming home the same
wanting me to get ahead of the rest
don't burn me up
i might not be here for tomorrow's fire
how dare you treat me like
someone you'd hire
how dare you say "i love you"
like something it stands for
i needed someone that i could admire
