Before It Burned

Lyrics

[Verse 1] My heart falls on my chest, beats crazy when I'm around you Most times I'm sweating bullets soon as we're let outta school 'Cause I don't wanna find you standing there with somebody new I think I'd have to kill myself if somebody knew [Pre-Chorus 1] The way that I feel when you say my name but don't shout it The sun's on your face, but everything else is too clouded [Chorus] I go back and forth in my room wondering Why you're so caught up in his lust I stand outside with distance And I can tell, way deep down, that there's no trust I can't stand how it feels Knowing you'll never see me more than just A face in the crowd, a tape on the ground A flame that went out before it burned [Verse 2] I never tried, it's so one-sided, so I can't blame you There's no denying I caught your eye, then I looked at my shoes I pray so hard, need back those chances I always blew I think I'd have to kill myself if somebody knew [Pre-Chorus 2] The way that I feel when you say my name but don't shout it The sun's on your face, but everything else is too clouded And all that I need is that simple sound from those lips 'Cause you've been playing me over and over again Playing me over and over again [Chorus] I go back and forth in my room wondering Why you're so caught up in his lust I stand outside with distance And I can tell, way deep down, that there's no trust I can't stand how it feels Knowing you'll never see me more than just A face in the crowd, a tape on the ground A flame that went out before it burned [Outro] I go back and forth in my room wondering Why you're so caught up in his lust I stand outside with distance And I can tell, way deep down, that there's no trust I can't stand how it feels Knowing you'll never see me more than just A face in the crowd, a tape on the ground A flame that went out before it burned
