Album: Losing Weight, Gaining Ground

Burns Away

We went on our separate ways, there's nothing more for me to say
We reached the point where giving up & going on are the same dead end
All our hapes for something more were just games to pass the time away

& I don't wanna live that lie, there's really nothing more to say
Everytime I picked you up you ran through my clutching hands
Cut back, left behind I watched you, what made you so scared?
Self destructive, lost perspective of what once was us
We lit the candle at both ends & it slowly burns away
I am thing of you less as time goes by
I'm cleaning up the mess you left behind in this confusing state of mind

I hope you found what you were looking for, 'cause I'm not bitter
I just found a way to see things clearer, a way to understand
[repeat chorus]
