Lyrics
Is it just because I'm afraid
Of a secret laughter of me
And all the feelings I would like to spare
The whole truth
Can it happen any other way
My tomorrow is now today
And there's always something more to do
For you
You burn me out
Is it just because I'm afraid
And what of all the stuff I'm made of
Said and done in by the tried and true
You burn me out
Is it better burning fast and bright than fading slow
Is it just because I'm afraid
You know I made it all this way now
For packing losses and returning empty hands
Burn me out
Yeah, its nothing.
You know its all in a day.
