THE LAST SONG FOR YOU TO BURN
Finally got her on the phone
Wondering if this was another game
Waiting for the roof to cave in
From the weight of all my fucking shame
To eat my humble pie
To scramble up my brain
Maybe this will be the same old deal
Maybe this will be the one that’s real
She sounds as amazing as she looks
She’s cute and frazzled and she’s anxious
And a little nervous, even
Pleasantly surprised
She said, “Meet me for a drink.”
I can smell the other guys
I can recognize the stink
Amazing
I guess I’m not the only one that’s burning inside
Just another lost soul pretending I’m wise
I’m just burning
You’re just another serpent promising lies
You start the fire then you run then you hide
I guess I’m not the only one that’s burning inside
But words just don’t mean anything
To you
Did anyone think this love could last so long?
I promised you that this would be the last song
For you to burn
