BURNED THROUGH
You brought me here to play
I brought you to your knees
together we bought time
two lives intertwined
love was in short supply
until the day they took you away
We drifted on the sea of who we need to be
never standing saying "this is who I am"
When all that we belong to has all been burned through
faith and love and hope will be discarded
When all that we aspire to has been burned through
we'll see the meaning of equality
I helped you run away
you helped me lose my mind
together we held strong
two lives incomplete
shortchanged and on the line
until the day I knew you were mine
We drifted on the sea of who we need to be
never standing saying "this is who I am"
When all that we belong to has all been burned through
faith and love and hope will be discarded
When all that we aspire to has been burned through
we'll see the meaning of equality
And they'll find that we were right
too late to decide our fate
no time time to understand it
no time to feel obliged
we're sacrificed
too late to be afraid
too late to run away
together in this last embrace
we will not falter on the alter
burning is better than falling in sway
burn, burn, burn
