Back Burner Lyrics


Convictions to the back burner
Convictions to the back burner
Remembering what's really
Important isn't so important after allGather all your possessions
Smile 'cause you've got it all
Gather all your possessions
Smile 'cause you've got it allWhat?Smile 'cause you've got it all
Smile 'cause you've got it allStill that empty feeling won't go away, go away
Still that empty feeling won't go away, go awayYour puzzle's missing one very essential piece
And I know you'll keep looking in all the wrong places
Until it's too late, until it's too lateSlip on the ice again, when did you become so cold?
Living for the here and now never made so much, so much sense
Slip on the ice again, when did you become so cold?You've got all the time in the world
But this could all be ending, nowHow far down will you go before it's too late?
Slipping on the ice again, you've become so coldLucky for you rock bottom is in sight
Lucky for you rock bottom is in sightYour wake up call is set for now
And the trail you have followed
Has come all the way to the end, ohI hope you survive, survive the crash

Enjoy the lyrics !!!
