Song Lyrics

"Burn"

by Common Children
Album: Delicate Fade

You shove my soul inside of a bottle,
All tattooed in black and blue,
The heart is hard and the mind is hollow,
Choke on the crumbs that fall from you.

My eyes are burning up,
I cannot say a word,
Just sit down and shut right up,
My mind is burning up.

Would you scream or would you whisper, if I spoke my mind in front of you'
Would you bruise or would you blister, if the truth fell from the mouths of fools'

My eyes are burning up,
I cannot say a word,
Just sit down and shut right up,
My mind is burning up.

My mind is burning, burning,
My mind is burning, burning,
My mind is burning, burning,
My mind is burning, burning.

Mass appeal for your perception,
Interrogate the least of these,
Manipulate your own direction, blinded by your bigotry.

My eyes are burning up,
I cannot say a word,
Just sit down and shut right up,
My mind is burning up.

My mind is burning, burning,
My mind is burning, burning,
My eyes are burning, burning,
My eyes are burning, burning.
