Burn, Burn, Burn

Well, everyone seems a damn genius lately Tik-Tok talkin', late-night TV There's still so much that I have yet to know We get dressed up just to go downtown In some ego-filled late-night crowd Seems to be where I feel the most alone I'd like to get lost on some old back road Find a shade tree and a honey hole And talk to my grandpa again And I see God in everything The trees and pain and nights in the spring So why do I still long for a home? I'd like to lay in a field on a cozy blanket And feel the fear of never wakin' To know the true warmth of the sun I'd like to love my lady long and hard And lay down lines of laymen guitar Never leave her lovin' arms again My exes hate me and my friends all miss me I wanna drown in rotgut whiskey Leave this small town for a while Head to Paris on a late-night flight Find a bar and get in a fight Write a few poems on a sunny balcony I wanna be a child climbin' trees somewhere Breathin' in the fresh, outside air And before I knew this life was unkind I want a well-trained dog on a couple of acres A kind, kind lady and a place to take her Few good friends I can count on one of my hands I know I'm bound to die one day So when I reach those golden gates I pray to say I did the best I can Sit with my mother and the dearly departed Send a prayer down to the broken-hearted Let 'em know it all turns out just fine To know me is to love me and to hate me is to wrong me I prefer my nights so lonely Love blues guitar, muscle cars, and gin I'm a simple man, I don't need much Just my simple songs and some human touch I'm tired now so I'm bringin' my ass home So let me go down the line Let me feel it all, joy, pain, and sky So let me go down the line We all burn, burn, burn, and die So let me go down the line I wanna feel it all, joy, pain, and sky So let me go down the line We all burn, burn, burn, and then die So let me go down the line I wanna feel it all, joy, pain, and sky So let me go down the line We all burn, burn, burn, and then die --- Burn, Burn, Burn - Zach Bryan
