I've been burning
Yes I've been burning
Such a burden
This flame on my chest
No insurance
To pay for the damage
Yeah, I've been burning up since you left
I've been smoking oh, more than 20 a day
Blame it on rebellion
Don't blame it on me
Wish I was younger
Back to the 19th of May
I had an open mind
Swore to never change
Funny how time goes by
Had respect for myself
That river ran dry
You reached a limit
I wasn't enough
It's like the fire replaced all the love
I've been burning
Yes I've been burning
Such a burden
This flame on my chest
No insurance
To pay for the damage
Yeah I've been burning up since you left
If you ever called
I would run straight back
Give you my forgiveness
And the shirt off my back
No friends to turn to
Yeah I messed up that
Wish we could smoke again just for a day
Yeah I've been burning up since you left
Oh, I've been burning up since you left
