Burnout

It could never work, it was closing in
It's coming down again
Without words to let it out

I still remember when
You became my sole intention
With the clarity that kills

Still whispering through my silences
It's like a hole that never fills
And it's killing me still

Keep walking it off
With a little lost and a little gained, I'll begin
Still weeding you out from under my skin
With a little lost and a little gained, I'll begin again

I
Two sides of me, two sides of me
Could never see eye to eye
Stand on either side of one divided sea
Divided sea, when it seems

You shine like the stars, but I can't fight the feeling
You'll only make me colder, burnout when I'm stone-cold
You shine like the stars, burning through my ceiling
But you make me colder, burnout, leave me well alone

How much you must take this for granted
That things would always stay the same
However thin you spread yourself across our
Former imagining

I
Two sides of me, two sides of me
Could never see eye to eye
Stand on either side of one divided sea
Divided sea, when it seems

You shine like the stars, but I can't fight the feeling
You'll only make me colder, burnout when I'm stone-cold
You shine like the stars, burning through my ceiling
But you make me colder, burnout, leave me well alone

Still with myself in the deafening silence
You keep staining my eyes with the past I started
Leaves me waiting for life from a dying star
You keep staining my eyes with the past I started

You shine like the stars, but I can't fight the feeling
You'll only make me colder, burnout when I'm stone-cold
You shine like the stars, burning through my ceiling
But you make me colder, burnout, leave me well alone
Leave me well alone
You shine like the stars
You shine like the stars
You shine like the stars, burning through my ceiling
Burnout, leave me well alone
