Screeching Weasel - Burnout Girl Lyrics

Screeching Weasel Lyrics

"Burnout Girl"

I walk by your house while you're laying in bed
Thoughts of rescuing you race through my head
I'd rip my heart out of my chest
And hold it for you to inspect
And while the blood dripped down our hands
We could kiss

The apartment ambiance is like a motel
Little town blues can't compare to this hell
Do you ever wanna go
Anywhere but here and now?
Well, I'm waiting here alone for you

You somehow ignore the repetitive structures
Around you that scream indifference
You are inspired by nothingness
Nothing can alter the scope of your dreams

I'll still wait while you're asleep in your bed
But the air smells different out here at 3 AM
And all the hopes you're clinging to
Will fall apart inside your room
So please come on out and do something else

You're an enigma
You're so incredible
You're an enigma
You're so incredible, presentable
I'd eat you up if I thought you were edible
