Summer air bouncing off the bathroom door
100 degrees, two damn weeks, can’t take it no more
Outside, smoked to the filter, divided as can be
one day this to will pass gets harder to believe

When we’re burning up again
When we’re burning all our friends / at both ends
When we’re burning up again
When we’re burning
We only want it to end

I only feel good when I’m driving everything else is a lie
Cave to our obligations, they knock us down inside
I don’t choose to be unhappy, it came on naturally
You tell me in bed how it’s all in my head, I nod like I agree

When we’re burning at both ends
When we’re burning all our friends
When we’re burning up again
When we’re burning
We only want it to end

If I take this pill or that
They say it will help
But they aren’t around if they’re wrong
A pin poke exception
A fancy confection
Give me your money I’m gone

Yes I've seen this before, I know that I should laugh
Would you come unglued if happened to you?
Feigning a hope for the future, scraps of make believe
Day like these get hard to pretend, wind up on your knees

When we’re burning at both ends
When we’re burning all our friends
When we’re burning up again
When we’re burning
We only want it to end
