Light a match, watch the flame
Let it run through my name
I've got a mouthful of cigarettes
I don't make good choices when I'm desperate
​
Play a show, empty bar
Dry your tears in your car
Leave your soul on the stage for its reaping
Nobody cares that you're leaving
Oh, nobody cares that you're leaving
​
I'm burning out like you said I would
Did everything, everything I could
I am a fire without any wood
​
I'll be dead by 23
Cause my mind gave up on me
How do you get back on your own good side
I am just trying to stay alive
Oh, I am just trying to stay alive
​
I'm burning out like you said I would
Did everything, everything I could
I am a fire without any wood
​
Can you hear me screaming?
I'm charred from all this dreaming
My lungs are filled with smoke
I've lost all my control
​
I'm burning out like you said I would
Did everything, everything I could
I'm burning out like you said I would
Did everything, everything I could
I am a fire without any wood
​
We're ashes we're ashes we're ashes on the ground
We're ashes we're ashes and we will all fall down
We're ashes we're ashes we're ashes on the ground
We're ashes we're ashes and we will all fall down
