I'm burnt out
Like a corpse in a campfire
All I got is time
There is something
In the eyes of a child
It may rust and fade
But it can never die
If I knew then
Everything that I know now
I'd never blink again
I'm caught in a nose dive
No one escapes
No one makes it out alive
Just like a fire in the mines

You can't make me go home
I don't need a hand to hold
When I'm ready to go
You will be the first to know
And I will see that this place
Is laid to waste
Aint it a shame

I've been wearing
My heart taped on my sleeve
I'm not afraid of the dark
But I'm wary of sleep
I'm dried up
Like the corpse of a vampire
Time is on my side
I know I am burning
I can't feel the flames
But you can see the smoke for miles
Just like a fire in the mine

You can't make me go home
I don't need a hand to hold
When I'm ready to go
You will be the first to know
Hell no
I wont do what I'm told
'Cuz I know
I'll be dead before I'm old
And I will see that this place
Is laid to waste
Aint it a shame
Aint it a shame
Aint it a shame
Maybe I'm to blame

I've changed now
Like it's the curse of the full moon
The night is mine
I'm like a werewolf
With the mind of a child
You can plead and cry
All I can do is smile
If I could teach you
Everything that I know now
You'd never breathe again
We've been stepping on landmines
We've made mistakes
And now we're gonna fucking die
A bullet between the eyes

You can't make me go home
I don't need a hand to hold
When I'm ready to go
You will be the first to know
And I will see that this place
Is laid to waste
And they will rue the day
As we dance upon thier graves
Aint it a shame
Baby not to me
