Burning Hearts - Silverstein

The blood is rushing to my head

This room is spinning round the bed

A flashing image perforates

Tarnishes memories of grace

A bursting bond reforms into this shape

And if my body makes it out

Unscathed and safe from broken vows

A promise spoken leaves me holding on

I just can’t get a hold of

Why we always hurt the ones we love

Can burning hearts still keep us strong?

A crack has formed in the foundation

The floor is falling out from under me

A pleading loser makes his case

A liar shakes his head and breaks

A life of honor turns into his shame

And if my body makes it out

Unscathed and safe from broken vows

A promise spoken leaves me holding on

I just can’t get a hold of

Why we always hurt the ones we love

Can burning hearts still keep us strong?

It’s all my fault (It's all my fault)

This eagle’s flying down below where shadows fall

Now it’s sinking in (Now it’s sinking in)

That I’m sinking into this place I never thought I’d view

You can’t trust me, I’m not worthy

You won’t ever feel this way

The storm is moving overhead

The wind is blowing back, we’ve been mislead

And if my body makes it out

Unscathed and safe from broken vows

A promise spoken leaves me holding on

I just can’t get a hold of

Why we always hurt the ones we love

Can burning hearts still keep us strong?
