"Burn As Bright" lyrics

"Burn As Bright"
(feat. The Weather Station)

Let loose all those thoughts
When a brain ain't used it rusts
She's got suspicions
But he swears he slept on the floor

Well a man who stays out late
He'll never make much of a mate
If he don't think twice about
Leaving her by the door

You light up when you see me
But your eyes don't burn as bright
You light up when you see me
But you're wondering where I spent the night

You light up when you see me
And swear you'll never leave me
But now I think you might
If you find those eyes don't burn
Burn as bright

If a mind so full of hate
Can once again learn to date
Well the world won't end
But might stand still for a while

True but don't you start
When two hearts drift apart
I'm trying to play the victim
So don't you make me smile

You light up when you see me
But your eyes don't burn as bright
You light up when you see me
But you're wondering where I spent the night

You light up when you see me
And swear you'll never leave me
But now I think you might
If you find those eyes don't burn
Burn as bright
