Burn Out

(album: On The Rocks - 2017)

Watching cigarettes burn out
'Til all the neon gets turned out
I was so on fire for you it hurts how
Fast that a cigarette can burn out

Just watching rivers run
Down the side of my bottle
Almost like it's crying my tears
I had the world on a string
And then I lost everything
And that's how I wound up here

Watching cigarettes burn out
'Til all the neon gets turned out
There's nothing left but empty glasses now
It's all flashes now
Smoking memory that ain't nothing but ashes
In the low lights
These done-me-wrong songs hit me so right
I was so on fire for you it hurts how
Fast that a cigarette can burn out

If you put your hands on the flame
You've got no right to complain
'Cause you know it's gonna leave a mark
When the glow comes to an end
Like scattered embers in the wind
Leaves you looking for a brand new spark

Watching cigarettes burn out

No, with every hit
I'm gonna quit
But who am I kidding I just can't put you down
So I keep hanging around

Watching cigarettes burn out
'Til all the neon gets turned out
There's nothing left but empty glasses now
It's all flashes now
Smoking memory that ain't nothing but ashes
In the low lights
These done-me-wrong songs hit me so right
I was so on fire for you it hurts how
Fast that a cigarette can burn out
I was so on fire for you it hurts how
Fast that a cigarette can burn out
