The Burn - Matchbox Twenty

I thought about

Leaving but i couldn’t even get outta bed

I’m hangin’cause i couldn’t get a ride outta town

Now anyone who really wanted me to be down

Come 'round

Thought about

Singin’but i couldn’t remember all of the words

Breakin’but i couldn’t get the pieces apart

Laughin’never knowing what the joke was about

Now i’m down

And i wonder how i never got the burn

And if i’m ever gonna learn

How lonely people make a life

One strain at a time

Forgot about

Everything and everyone i needed before

Tryin’to get a handle on a reason to shine

Pickin’up the pieces that are falling behind takes time

So i wonder how i never got the burn

And if i’m ever gonna learn

How lonely people make a life

One strain at a time and still shine

And i wonder how i never got the burn

And if i’m ever gonna learn

How lonely people make a life

One strain at a time

And i wonder how i never got the burn

And if i’m ever gonna learn

How lonely people make a life

One strain at a time and still shine
