You’re feeling like you’re going down
You’re throwing in the towel, you’re through
Don’t tell me how it’s going down

So come on a little closer
I’ll take you from Burden Avenue
I won’t be your burden ever

So far I can’t tell anything apart
Where’s the love you’re after?
So far I can’t tell anything

Calling out your name, I hear they only lay you down
Do what you have to make it right, right
I won’t be your holy roller
Everywhere I go it rains on me
Carry on with your own life
When I tell you you’re the one and you run like hell

You’re feeling like you’re going down
You’re sinking ship is big enough for two
Tell me you’re alone, I will be the one who is there for you

So come on a little closer
I’ll take you from Burden Avenue
I won’t be your burden ever

So far I can’t tell anything apart
Where’s the love you’re after?
So far I can’t tell anything

Calling out your name, I hear they only lay you down
Do what you have to make it right, right
I won’t be your holy roller
Everywhere I go it rains on me
Carry on with your own life
When I tell you you’re the one

We’re running out of time

By the way, feed your horses and I’ll be sure to find the fire behind your eyes
By the way, feed your horses and my willingness to fight
By the way, feed your horses and I’ll be on your side

I’ll tell you you’re the one who opened up my eyes
If you try again to love then I’ll be on your side
You’ll never know if you don’t try
You’ll never know if you’re alive

Calling out your name, and run
Calling out your name

Calling out your name, I hear they only lay you down
Do what you have to make it right, right
I won’t be your holy roller
Everywhere I go it rains on me

I’ll tell you you’re the one who’s opened up my eyes
I’ll show you all the things you bring into my life
