Burnin' Up Lyrics
Goo Goo Dolls
Said you're burnin' up inside and no one seems to tell
You're living from a personalized manual from hell
Life is pretty easy when it's from my easy chair
And you're burnin' up inside and no one cares
Said you had enough this time cuz time don't treat you well
You always cried coincidence, while I drew parallels
Life, it seems so easy when it's from my easy chair
And you're burnin' up inside, burnin' up inside
Burnin' up inside and you hurt me
(Really hurt me)
(Oh, you hurt me)
Try to take my hand tonight, I'll show you where to start
Cuz every word that left your lips is like a needle through my heart
And life, it seems so easy when it's from my easy chair
And you're burnin' up inside, burnin' up inside
Burnin' up inside and you hurt my eyes
(Cuz you're burnin' up inside)
Hurt my eyes
(Cuz you're burnin' up inside)
Hurt my eyes
(Cuz you're burnin' up inside)
Hurt my eyes
You're living from a personalized manual from hell
Life is pretty easy when it's from my easy chair
And you're burnin' up inside and no one cares
Said you had enough this time cuz time don't treat you well
You always cried coincidence, while I drew parallels
Life, it seems so easy when it's from my easy chair
And you're burnin' up inside, burnin' up inside
Burnin' up inside and you hurt me
(Really hurt me)
(Oh, you hurt me)
Try to take my hand tonight, I'll show you where to start
Cuz every word that left your lips is like a needle through my heart
And life, it seems so easy when it's from my easy chair
And you're burnin' up inside, burnin' up inside
Burnin' up inside and you hurt my eyes
(Cuz you're burnin' up inside)
Hurt my eyes
(Cuz you're burnin' up inside)
Hurt my eyes
(Cuz you're burnin' up inside)
Hurt my eyes
