"Burning A Good Thing" lyrics

"Burning A Good Thing"

Here comes a conversation
Pit of my chest and the back of my throat
Wasn't a lie when I said you made me happy
And you have a nice life
All I would do is tear it all down
Like a drunk in a bar fight
Predictable destruction

It's just same bed same positions
If I lose your breath I'll think of hers
But in the back of my mind know you'll never find it
But in the back of my mind know you'll never find what you're trying the fill

Burning a good thing
On a love I don't know is real
Burning a good thing
On someone that's not even here
I'm burning a good thing
I can't burn away the way I feel

Not like she's waiting for me
More than likely back alone
Avoiding sleep on my phone
But if I try to suppress it
This masochistic message
You could love someone who loves somebody else

Somebody you do not know
With a fist around my throat
It'll kill me if I let them go

Burning a good thing
On a love I don't know is real
Burning a good thing
On someone that's not even here
I'm burning a good thing
I can't burn away watch me burn it up
Gonna burn it up
Watch me burn it up
Gonna burn it up

Don't wanna hurt you
Don't wanna hurt you
I don't wanna hurt you
Is it living if I'm waiting
Letting these chances go
Living if I'm only loving someone in the back of my mind
No that's living on the outside of my body
That's living on the outside of my life and my my my mind
No that's living on the outside of my body
That's living on the outside of my life and my my my mind

Burning a good thing
On a love I don't know is real
Burning a good thing
On someone that's not even here
I'm burning a good thing
I can't burn away watch me burn it up
Gonna burn it up
Watch me burn it up
Gonna burn it up
Burning a good thing
On a love I don't know is real
Burning a good thing
On someone that's not even here
I'm burning a good thing
I can't burn away watch me burn it up
Gonna burn it up
Watch me burn it up
Gonna burn it up

Don't wanna hurt you
Don't wanna hurt you
I don't wanna hurt you
