Burning

Burning the candle at both ends
Burns it down faster
Burns it out faster.
But it keeps me moving
Keeps me busy
Keeps me dancing,
And the more I dance
The less I feel
The more I can ignore the pain.
The turmoil.
I can just dance away.

Don't dig too deep
Because things are buried for a reason
Bringing them to the surface,
Into the light,
Is never good for anyone.
So just let it lie
And burn burn burn
Faster and faster.
