Burning Out

Set me on fire
I'm hangin on by just a thread
I need to be inspired
So won't you take my hand
Show me what's in my head
I'm burning out I swear
I feel myself fading, I'm tired and bleeding
Got no control
When it comes and goes
I've got no choice but to let it flow
Then I'm out!
No way of predicting, this thing that I'm seeking
I need a spark
Can't keep a steady flame
I know it's here, can't see in the dark
Lights out!
Like flashes of lightning, so sudden and jarring
When it's lit, it roars
Like the Phoenix I soar
Hot and wild, from the ashes I rise
I'm reborn!
Powerful, fleeting, I'm searching for meaning
What comes next
The cycle's starting again
Like chasing smoke with my cold bare hands
I'm snuffed out!
I'm burning out!
Bleed me out till there's nothing left in me
Bare my soul for the whole world to see
Bleed me out till I'm running on empty
Show me please, what it's like to be free
I feel myself fading, I'm tired and bleeding
I'm a slave to fate
No, I can't concentrate
No rhyme or reason to the mess I make
Hear me out!
No way of predicting, this thing that I'm seeking
Gasoline
Pour it out on me
Throw me a match and then set me free
Light it up!
Like flashes of lightning, so sudden and jarring
Watch me burn
Like a forest fire
Watch me destroy everything I desire
I'm fucked up!
Powerful, fleeting, I'm searching
Yeah I'm burning out!
Burn me out now
Burn me out
I wanna scream out at the top of my lungs
Can't find the words so I just give up and run
I wish the voices in my head would just stay
Maybe they'd tell me what I've needed to say
I'm burnt out
Yeah I'm burning out
Burnt out
Burning out
I feel myself fading, I'm tired and bleeding
Got no control
When it comes and goes
I've got no choice but to let it flow
Then I'm out!
No way of predicting, this thing that I'm seeking
I need a spark
Can't keep a steady flame
I know it's here, can't see in the dark
Lights out!
Like flashes of lightning, so sudden and jarring
When it's lit, it roars
Like the Phoenix I soar
Hot and wild, from the ashes I rise
I'm reborn!
Powerful, fleeting, I'm burning
Burning out!
Burnt out!
