"burn" lyrics

I'm falling behind
I lost sight from the light in my eyes
But I got ties
I don't wanna leave them behind
I lost time putting out all the fires
And I feel it burning
I feel it burn

The iron strikes hot when your guard's down
Don't mess it up, pick it up 'cause it's never gonna slow down

I've been caught up and lost inside
On a come down from riding high
Frozen in time and left to wait
No matter the path I try to take
I'll always let you down

I'm falling behind
I lost sight from the light in my eyes, but
I got ties, I don't wanna leave them behind
I lost time putting out all the fires
And I feel it burning
I feel it burn

The iron strikes hot when your guard's down
You'll never know, know, know till you fall down
The iron strikes hot when your guard's down
Don't mess it up, pick it up 'cause it's never gonna slow down

Put the brakes on
They wanna slide on my drive, the mistakes on them
Life on the edge of a knife, and I'm praying for
A little more to see my fam before
They're dead and gone, damn

Now I'm starting to panic that I'm going off track
If it was all for nothing, could I find my way back?
Every time I say I'm sorry, I feel the weight piling on me
If only I could slow it down

I'm falling behind
I lost sight from the light in my eyes, but
I got ties, I don't wanna leave them behind
I lost time putting out all the fires
And I feel it burning
I feel it burning out

I'm falling behind
I lost sight from the light in my eyes, but
Running out of time
I got ties, I don't wanna leave them behind
And I lost my life putting out these fires
I lost time putting out all the fires
And I feel it burning
Feel it burn

Was this all for nothing?
I'd rather watch it burn
Fall down
You'll never know, know, know till you fall down
