Burn Thru - Abigail Washburn

Started out simple

Started out clean

Like a starlit night

Smell of rain

The day stacked up

And the air grew thin

Gravity pulling

Pulling me down in

Push up from the bed

Feel my hit the floor

Dreamt I was running

Through a field of fire

Shadows in my tracks

But I ain’t looking back

At the rest of you

Hey I’m trying so hard

To see the light

To see the light

To see it burn thru hey hey hey

Not going down with the rest of you

I’m not going down with the rest of you

Now you’re asking for answers

You want a clarion call

But you’re drowning in echos

Bouncing off walls

I ain’t no prophet

I got no horn to blow

So let the darkness fall

Let the sky charred up black

Let the animals out

Let the plate come back

So you rock me in the morning

Wake my body up

Till the light comes through

Till you gotta shout

Hey I’m trying so hard

To see the light

To see the light

To see it burn thru

Hey I’m trying so hard

To see the light

To see the light

To see it burn thru hey hey hey

Not going down with the rest of you

I’m not going down like you want me to

We all want something else

We all want something else

Now you’re running in my tracks

But I ain’t looking back

At the rest of you

Now you’re running in my tracks

But I ain’t looking back

At the rest of you

Now you’re running in my tracks

But I ain’t looking back

At the rest of you

Oh you’re running in my tracks

But I ain’t looking back

At the rest of you

Now you’re running in my tracks

But I ain’t looking back

At the rest of you

Oh you’re running in my tracks

But I ain’t looking back

At the rest of you

Now you’re running in my tracks

But I ain’t looking back

At the rest of you

We all want something else
