It's On
Burndown All-Stars Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Lay me down at another show
Trade my gift in another light
One two three in the dead of night
Flack shed skin in another blow
Liars don't sin and the cronics don't show
Time to take it all back
I tried to make it there
Your soul flew away, I was not there
I cried just a little
I swore Id never say
I'd pray for you just one more day
Going to list with crazy eyes
Going to make it your disguise
Kick back it's going to be forever
Blame fault see the light
Take me back at another fight
Can't be late another day
Talk with me in another way
I scream just a little
I tried to make it there
Your soul flew away, I was not there
I cried just a little
I swore Id never say
I'd pray for you just one more day
I saw you sitting there
In your favorite arm chair
Just making sure she's alright
Overbearing you may be
But your mayhem lost me
You're still everything to me
I scream just a little
I tried to make it there
Your soul flew away, I was not there
I cried just a little
I swore Id never say
I'd pray for you just one more day
