Burn To Shine Lyrics - Breathing Tornados - Ben Lee

You called me early one morning 

And said you were glad I was home 

You were lying there flat on your back 

Getting drunk playing guitar alone 

Did she say 

She was leaving the very next day 

Did you beg her to stay 

Did you beg her to stay 

You got to burn to shine 

You got to burn to shine 

You got to burn to shine 

It doesn't get easy, get empty, get older 

And realize we actually die 

Filled up with fear and the question persists 

That you just might be living a lie 

And I saw, as you beat 

Your tired fists on the wall 

Are you asking for more 

Are you asking for more 

You got to burn to shine 

You got to burn to shine 

You got to burn to shine 

You got to burn to shine 

You got to burn to shine 

You got to burn to shine 

I'm keepin' it together 

Just keep it together at best 

Somewhere inside of me 

I know that this is a test 

You got to burn to shine 

You got to burn to shine 

You got to burn to shine 

You got to burn to shine 

You got to burn to shine 

You got to burn to shine
