Burn It

(album: Messing With Magic - 2020)

It's a freezing cold winter night
And it's turning me up inside
Everything we said we can't take back
Everything transparent
And all I see is emptiness
Wrapped up in your big head

How do you hold smoke in your lungs without dyin'?
How do you know when to let go and stop tryin'?

I see you checking me with your eyes
Seeing me off one last time
So I'm swimming far, far from shore
Even though I want some more
And sometimes I wanna get back
Even though I know you're bad

How do you hold smoke in your lungs without dyin'?
How do you know when to let go and stop tryin'?
How do you hold smoke in your lungs without dyin'?
How do you know when to let go and stop tryin'?

So I'll throw it in the fireplace
Ooh, with all of my mistakes
I'm smelling like gasoline
Now I'm not your figurine
You said it's gonna be alright
I've got to let you go this time

How do you hold smoke in your lungs without dyin'?
How do you know when to let go and stop tryin'?

Ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh
Ooh-woah-ooh-woah-ooh-yeah

How do you hold smoke in your lungs without dyin'?
How do you know when to let go and stop tryin'?

Trying, trying, and you're trying
