| Play the game of indecision, come what may, she knows it isn’t just
|
| His voice on the line, one final time she hears thunder
|
| Precious lies when she played her part
|
| Still she tries, because hope dies hard
|
| With broken wings, she can feel the sting like a backhand over the telephone
|
| In her eyes, shimmers twilight, drivin’hard, it gives up the fight
|
| And she fights it back, knowing that the dam could break wide open
|
| Burning down inside, nobody wants to be lonely
|
| Burning down inside, the harder they come, the harder she falls
|
| To her face, I show my arm, I walk away, before I do more harm
|
| And with the damage done, she won’t know where to run or who to run to Turnin’like a spinning wheel, dancin’on her head
|
| Tries so hard to walk away, she falls in love instead
|
| My head says, we should always go our own ways, never get too close
|
| When she can hear my heart, if she comes apart, I’ll be waiting
|
| chorus repeats 2x
|
| Burning down inside — the harder she falls — burning down inside
|
| Burning down inside, the harder they come, the harder she falls
|
| Burning down inside, burning down inside
|
| Burning down inside, the harder they come, the harder she falls
|
