Burn Like Embers

[Verse 1]
I don't wanna talk about it, not now, not ever
I don't even wanna think about it, but I will forever
Some things like this you wish you wouldn't remember
Mistakes like this, like a bloody fist, they burn like embers
Regrets like this, like a stolen kiss, they burn like embers

[Refrain]
They burn like embers
They burn like embers, ooh
They burn like embers
They burn like embers, yeah
(They burn like, they burn like)

[Breakdown]
They burn like embers
They burn like embers

[Verse 2]
I don't wanna live with this ghost, but I know I got no choice
These thoughts are haunting me now, like a dirge with no voice
We live and learn, we try and we endeavor
But regrets like this, when the guilt train hits, they burn like embers
Regrets like this, like a stolen kiss, they burn like embers

[Bridge]
(They burn like embers)
And they aren't burning out 'til your body's in the ground now
(They burn like embers, ooh)
Please don't make a sound, it's so deafening now
(They burn like embers)
I can't get away, I try to escape
(They burn like, they burn like)
They can't be erased, remember
(They burn like, they burn like)

[Breakdown]
They burn like embers
(They burn like, they burn like, they burn like)
They burn like embers
They burn like embers, ooh
They burn like—
(They burn like, they burn like, they burn like)
They burn like embers

[Outro]
And they aren't burning out 'til your body's in the ground now
Please don't make a sound, it's so deafening now
I can't get away, I try to escape
They can't be erased, remember
They burn like embers
They burn like embers, yeah
