[Verse 1]
I was born and I died
And just a moment went by
I was a son and a brother
I stand out over the water
Waves crashed on the shore
This is the day that I was born
[Hook]
I burn on, I burn on
Autumn cold beneath my feet
I burn on, I burn on
Walked through the city while it sleeps
I burn on, I burn on
This is the day that I was born
[Verse 2]
Caught snow flakes on my tongue
I thought I knew what love was
A thousand push pins in a map
Only to prove I could exist
Don't hold on too hard
To the way that everything was
[Hook 2]
I burn on, I burn on
Endless summer in my heart
I burn on, I burn on
I'm not afraid to fall apart
I burn on, I burn on
This is the day that I was born
[Bridge]
And my eyes are fading
Half lives filled on hand written pages
She's already sleeping
I'll just lay here and listen to her breathing
[Outro]
Oh, Autumn cold beneath my fee
Oh, endless summer in my heart
Oh, this is the day that I was born
I was born and I died
And just a moment went by
