"The Burnout" lyrics

Wish I wasn't at a run down motel, watching them rigs roll down the interstate
So I could get out of my head and forget about the things that keep me up this late, ohh

But here I go again running myself dead straight into the ground
Slap a headstone on and carve the name of a man that just burned out
It's been a long hot summer full of blowouts and broken hearts on the side of the road
Just shake another hand and take another picture and just get on with the show

By the time I'm free she's fast asleep
And before you know it it's been two weeks
Don't know how long she'll wait on me but I know we're gonna figure it out
How to turn a spark to a flame
I might catch fire one day
If I can get through the burnout

Pull my brim down to keep that sun out
I can feel it on my face
Everyone's passed out, drunk from the comedown
I'm the only one awake

Rollin' in on two wheels and two hours sleep
And a headache that just won't quit
I swear I didn't drink that much
But I still feel like shit

By the time I'm free she's fast asleep
And before you know it it's been two weeks
Don't know how long she'll wait on me but I know we're gonna figure it out
How to turn a spark to a flame
I might catch fire one day
If I can get through the burnout

By the time I'm free she's fast asleep
And before you know it it's been two weeks
Don't know how long she'll wait on me but I know we're gonna figure it out
How to turn a spark to a flame
We might catch fire one day
If we can get through the burnout
Oh the burnout
