Our defenses open, our motives are shot This hush of the heart seems too much to keep Its gathered here and wakening me And stealing with fear thats reaching in And pulling out with every beat Resounding loud and clear But only to me, but only to me In this confiding pulse Ill find a way to keep it all confined Its reminding me Always surrounding me Past pictures will keep me From being the man I could be Burn out and Ill burn now And I'll carry this burden of memory A name that lingers on a blank face Can never fill a heart thats sinking fast And hurting to feel Its falling so fast now To never rise again Its falling so fast now To never rise again We all burn, rise, fall now We all rise and fall [Incomprehensible] We all burn out, burn out We all rise and fall Rise and fall
