Burnout Lyrics

I know it's hard when the world is changing
I know you cry yourself to sleep
I know that times are tough, you're another diamond in the rough
With promises you always fail to keep
You're losing touch with all around you
You're giving up on all your friends
I've seen you waste away, there's little I could do or say
To ever bring your problems to an end


Flying away, leaving your home, your dreams, and all that you desire
Throwing away everything you loved, you're burning in your fire
Burnout, Burning out. You're burning in your fire!
Burnout, Burnout. You're giving up again.


I know you're feeling rather desperate
For answers you know you won't get
You're at the perfect age, with strength and spirit none could gauge
And still, you try your hardest to forget
Every secret, every answer
Every lie you've ever told
Every guilty sigh, and every time you fell to cry
Your strength became a weakness, in the end you became cold.


Flying away, leaving your home, your dreams, and all that you desire
Throwing away everything you loved, you're burning in your fire
Burnout, Burning out. You're burning in your fire!
Burnout, Burnout. You're giving up again.


You won, but at what cost?
The spirit of everything you've lost
Is haunting all your memories
You're doing your best but they won't leave you be!
But now's the time to set things right
You gotta set straight what you call a life
And put it behind you, Now is the time to go!


Flying away, leaving your home, your dreams, and all that you desire
Throwing away everything you loved, you're burning in your fire
Burnout, Burning out. You're burning in your fire!
Burnout, Burnout. You're giving up again.
