Burnin' Lyrics

Jesse Dayton Burnin'

[Verse 1]
Reckless like, reckless like, reckless like a drunk
It's a fool about to fall
Hangin' over the edge
And about to lose it all

[Verse 2]
I can feel, I can feel, I can feel her spirit
Burnin' deep inside of me
While I'm lonesome in this crowd
And she's where I wanna be

[Chorus]
Well she's burnin' in my soul
And I'm spinnin' outta control
And I'm stuck down in this hole
Well she's burnin' in my soul

[Verse 3]
Burnin' dim, burnin' dim, my flame is burnin' dim
But the world don't seem to care
If I let go with a whim
Just vanish in thin air

[Verse 4]
Walkin' to, walkin' to, I'm walkin' to the scene
Gonna jump headfirst
Not the deep end but the shallows
Where it only makes it worse
[Verse 5]
Swimmin' with, swimmin' with, swimmin' with them sharks
Screamin' "Bón appetit!"
As they make a meal of me
Spit my bones out on the street, yeah

[Chorus]
Well she's burnin' in my soul
And I'm spinnin' outta control
And I'm stuck down in this hole
Well she's burnin' in my soul

[Verse 6]
Waitin' for, waitin for, waitin' for a sign
For fifty-one straight years
And a zig-zag line
To bring me to tears, yeah
