Burning Bright Lyrics - Singles - Crossley Hunter

You bury yourself 

You're working on the line just doing time 

Sometimes you try to say to yourself 

If things could fall in line you're doing fine 

Well don't we try to comfort ourselves 

All waiting for a sign to ease our minds 

One day you get to hating yourself for living out a lie, for wasting all 

your time 

I know beneath our skin lies the open hearted 

I'll go where we began 

Back before we started 

Hey, I'll be burning bright today 

I'll take the time to live and learn how to bleed 

Hey, watch me smile and light the flames 

It takes some fire to burn and learn how to be 

You're raising yourself 

Built upon the words your father spoke to keep you from the grips of all hell 

And now it's forced upon the ones you know 

Let's see you try to comfort yourself with the branches of your crooked 

family tree - cause they'll break beneath the weight of empty words 

I'll shake it off of myself 

All the crooked lies dragging me through hell 

Tear it off of myself 

If you hear these words maybe then you'll know 

Hey, I'll be burning bright today
