(We All Have To) Burn Something

I'm all set, see I'm set straight
I got the whole thing and, yeah it's great
Life's just running around and sayin' 'Hi!'
And I don't have to worry, no
Cause I read people, yeah... no
God's taking notes on me
Well, things are off course just a little bit
Maybe it's me.,, nah, that's shit
They're gettin' worried about me
Well slow slow down, or so I'm told
I'm digging a circle around a hole
Let's play 'who won't breath'

Aaw, we all gotta burn something
Yeah, we all gotta burn something
See, we're all, we're all just burning something
Yeah, we all gotta burn something

Well, she had a boyfriend so i'm told
Played a dumb sport, did the drama show
Her parents screamed 'on your knees'
Trapped to bond every day's like never
I know I know things should get better
Ah, nah, not another bad week
But boy boyfriend, yeah, he cheated
Something about her being mistreated
In her eyes she was only twenty percent there
And little by little by little
She lost her interest little by little
At an age, young age, she had to burn something

Aaw, we all gotta burn something
Yeah, we all gotta burn something
See, we're all, we're all just burning something
Yeah, we all gotta burn something

So stop me while I'm tired. (3x)
Go on and stop me while I'm tired

He dug this girl from Tokyo
He wished he like the radio
He said 'maybe one day I'll put some crap up there too'
See learning is never what we expect
Kinda like the way they met
Overrun by a change those years can steal
And now he puts too many empty frames
In his lonely apartment he goes insane
From his life of constant action to now solitude
He said 'Power's too common, don't you think, these days?'
I'd rather go back to my old ways
I'd rather go back to my simple ways

Aaw, see we all gotta burn something
Yeah, we all gotta burn something
See, we're all, we're all just burning something
Yeah, we all gotta burn something
