Burning the days (demo)

Feels like you can smell it on your skin
You feel like people see it and
They don’t let you in
They make it look so easy
To be everything you wanted, but you
You made mistakes you can’t undo

Do you ever wonder where it ends
Just when you think you’re free
It all starts over again
But do you have to find
The love you thought you’d broken inside
And you can spend your life

Burning your days, just trying to find
A state of grace
The love that won’t fade away
And not that hole

Do you even rememb?r who you were
A bright spirit
A soldier mov?d by nothing on earth
TV and fairy tales
Just wanna be like everyone else
But you can lose yourself
Burning the days
Just trying to find a state of grace
The love that won’t fade away
And not that hole

Tear the world apart
Looking for something in the dark
To fill that hole in your heart
So dark and cold

Running down the clock
So lonely, you’re chasing after
Something so right
And it's just out of sight
Turn back to me now
Cause I’m not a dreamer
Stand in line
Before your own TV and fairy tales
Just want to be like everyone else
But you can lose yourself

Burning the days
Just trying to find a state of grace
The love that won’t fade away
And not that hole
Tear the world apart
Looking for something in the dark
To fill that hole in your heart
So dark and cold

Burning the days
Just trying to find a state of grace
The love that won’t fade away
And not that hole
