Burning Out
Glad for Today Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Hit me harder
Take me back where I belong
Show me fire

Not the streets, not the fields, neither mountains
I can't find my place to feel the same
I'm stuck in a circles once again
I've got nowhere else to go
And nowhere feels like home

Hit me harder
Take me back where I belong
Show me fire
Light the torches, cause it feels like burning out

Show me fire

Do I sleep? Do I dream? Or is it all real?
The darkness is taking hold of me
The matchbox seems empty once again

I've got nowhere else to go
And nowhere feels like home

Hit me harder
Take me back where I belong
Show me fire
Light the torches, cause it feels like burning out

Show me fire
Take me back where I belong

Hit me harder
Take me back where I belong
Show me fire
Light the torches, cause it feels like burning out





Yeah, it feels like burning out
