It's Lonely At The Top (Or So I've Heard) - Burden Of A Day

The chips are down

And we are drowning in the flood

It’s such a cruel mistress

A bitter taste tonight

Amidst the rising tide of good tries

The goodbyes make the ride home

On the wrong road

Seem Oh so trite

The seatbelt is keeping me trapped

The art form of not holding back

It’s arduous this glamorous life

It’s arduous don’t stop now

This is not a cautionary tale

The fuse is lit so run for help

Thirty minutes will burn faster than incinderary bomb’s (Whoa oh oh)

In standing here we learn to fall

In holding tight we lost it all

In thirty minutes we believe

We’re gonna chase this falling star (Whoa oh oh)

Thank you for coming here tonight

I see the wonder in your eyes

Don’t let me steer you wrong

I wrote this down to tear you up This is our labor, this is our labor of love to you, love to you

I’d rather bleed than live to see the day the song died out
