Burn

Lyrics

Don't look, don't look, the shadows breathe
 Whispering me away from you
 Don't wake at night to watch her sleep
 You know you will always lose
 This trembling, adored, tousled bird mad girl
 
 But every night I burn
 Every night I call your name
 
 Every night I burn
 Every night I fall again
 Oh don't talk of love, the shadows purr
 Murmuring me away from you
 Don't talk of worlds that never were
 The end is all that's ever true
 There's nothin' you can ever say
 Nothin' you can ever do
 Still every night I burn
 Every night I scream your name
 
 Every night I burn
 Every night the dream's the same
 
 Every night I burn
 Waiting for my only friend
 
 Every night I burn
 Waiting for the world to end
 ♪
 Just paint your face, the shadows smile
 Slipping me away from you
 Oh it doesn't matter how you hide
 Find you if we're wanting to
 So slide back down and close your eyes
 Sleep a while, you must be tired
 But every night I burn
 Every night I call your name
 
 Every night I burn
 Every night I fall again
 
 Every night I burn
 Scream the animal scream
 
 Every night I burn
 Dream the crow black dream
 
 Every night I burn
 Scream the animal scream
 
 Every night I burn
 Dream the crow black dream
 Dream the crow black dream
