The Burn

Bad is better than the burn

Some people never learn

Bad is better than the burnI'll take the blame, it's my mistake

One heart goes free, one heart just aches

It's an easy kill within my range

I made the break, honey, you kept the painAnd yesterday means nothin' to me now, doesn't matter

I'll keep it hid, you'll live somehowBad is better than the burn

Truth is better than a lie

Some people never learn

Bad is better than the burnI fished love's kiss from the wishing well

Wound up in heaven, stayed around for hell

It's a common crime to live this lie

I see no point after love has diedI'll be the one who said good-bye, oh yeah

And I'll take the heat for the tears you cryBad is better than the burn

Truth is better than a lie

Some people never learn

Bad is better than the burn, oh yeahBad is better than the burn

Or the hurt that's hidden in the heart

They say you pay with what you earn

Bad is better than the burnCold is the shoulder that turns away

Curses the man on Judgment Day

Damned by the brand done too soon

Crawled out of this house and howled at the moonAnd yesterday means nothing to me now

I'll keep it hid, you'll live somehowBad is better than the burn

Some people never learn

Bad is better than the burn

Bad is better than the burnTruth is better than a lie

Some people never learn

Bad is better than the burn

(Bad is better than the burn)Bad is better than the burn

Truth is better than a lie

Some people never learn

Bad is better than the burn

Bad is better than the burn
