Misfortunate Sons - Burn Out lyrics

And now it all comes out

I’ve faked a smile for far too long

Say you’ve been living hard

But don’t earn what you fucking own

I’m losing touch

I’m giving up now

You took your cup and you filled it with more than it could hold

Now it’s overflowed; it’s spilling onto every soul

But all your failures, they’re always out of your control

Cursing everyone you know and asking them for more

Six years and counting (as it stands)

You can’t catch a break

You broadcast your pain to the world

But it just don’t change a thing

Don’t know how we wound up here

I only hope it’s not too late

To see you dig your own grave

You said that no one understands

Gonna run away

Get as far as you fucking can

Then you fell to your knees,

Looked to the sky and said,

“Dear God, where have you gone,

And everyone I never really knew?

I’m losing touch

I’m giving up on you.”

Our flame is burning out

It’s fading fast, and I don’t know if we will last

I’m losing touch

I’m giving up
