Burning in my mind

Eric Martin


I've been walking through my life like 
There's nothing to lose 
Running when the light turns red 
Lately I realize there's a hole in my shoe 
Does it match with the hole in my head 

The sun goes down 
Ain't it funny how your face keeps coming back around
Where are you now 
Now that I have opened up my eyes 

Stop, stop the world I wanna get off 
It's too late burning in my mind 
Stop, stop killing me with what I haven't got 
It's too late burning in my mind 

What was I thinking at the end of my rope 
Let my attitude get ahead of my heart 
Some people get it and some of us don't 
As I love alone in the dark

What's kept inside 
All comes out in the wash after a while 
Where are you now 
Now that I have had my big surprise 

Stop, stop the world I wanna get off 
It's too late burning in my mind 
Stop, stop killing me with what I haven't got 
It's too late I'm losing my space in time 

There was truth in it all your Sunday sermons 
You were right about the one who's hurting now 
It's burning in mind 

Tired of being free
It gets harder every day 
Cause in my mind you'll always be 
The one that got away
