Burn şarkı sözleri

The show was out and the crowd was gone And in the backstage alley I came across a broken man There in hell's own galley He grabbed my hand, said: Listen, please You see, my time is fading Long ago and far away I used to hold them waiting The flames reached for the sky I heard the masses cry: More, more He told me of his life But time had passed him by Then and there I knew it was my turn to burn Burnin' in my eyes, burnin' in my soul Reachin' for the sky, but never lettin' go Burnin' in my eyes, burnin' in my soul Then and there I knew it was my turn to burn Lost in the scene of neon dreams I listened to his story Among the bins of thrown-out sins He spoke of his lost glory He dared the gods and played the odds Each night he'd take them higher Out of their cage, onto the stage To walk within the fire The flames reached for the sky I heard the masses cry: More, more He told me of his life But time had passed him by Then and there I knew it was my turn to burn Burnin' in my eyes, burnin' in my soul Reachin' for the sky, but never lettin' go Burnin' in my eyes, burnin' in my soul Then and there I knew it was my turn to burn He closed his eyes as if to cry I turned to see him leaving And with his wine, this ghost in time Slipped back into the evening And at my feet, there in the street Its chrome all scratched and gleaming Was his guitar, complete with scars And in my ears the screaming The flames reached for the sky I heard the masses cry: More, more He told me of his life But time had passed him by Then and there I knew it was my turn to burn Burnin' in my eyes, burnin' in my soul Reachin' for the sky, but never lettin' go Burnin' in my eyes, burnin' in my soul Reachin' for the sky, never lettin' go Burnin' in my eyes, burnin' in my soul Reachin' for the sky, never lettin' go Then and there I knew it was my turn to burn
