lyrics

I Am Burning

i am burning in a lake of flames
i am burning on a tree-lined street
i am burning on the showroom floor
i am burning in the blistering heat

i am burning down the avenue
i am burning like a silent bomb
no one seems to sense a thing
til i blow up this brutal calm

more compassion less contempt
an open heart is heaven sent
more compassion less contempt
that’s the way the wise ones went

i am burning in the airport lounge
i am burning on a wooden pew
i am burning in the central bank
i am burning where the shadows grew

i am burning with a secret glow
i am burning while the sun slips down
i am burning in my attic room
i am burning to ignite this town

chorus

i am burning while the fear rides high
i am burning though the powder’s wet
i am burning cause i had enough
i am burning cause i can’t forget

more compassion less contempt
an open heart is heaven sent
more compassion less contempt
that’s the way the wise ones went 2X
