Back Burner Lyrics by Greg X. Volz

Come Out Fighting

0

Some people have it:
The winning habit
The spark that takes them far
Don't know what to name it
Or how you can tame it
But they rise up like a star
But you know that you can trust Someone
Who has really felt the pain
Of standing still when the world goes by
When time passes, it all looks the same
Nothing has changed on the back burner
There's not much happening here
Sometimes I think you must be a slow learner
To wake up year after year
With not much to say, not much to do
Not much to show you that your calling is true
Back burner
You feel so lonely
Your faith goes only
As far as you can see
Your feet in chains
While your heart's in flames
And everybody says
"You've gotta think positively"
But there's a man who had to rot in a cell
Before he ever sat on the throne
The only change that'll ever hold up
Goes under the skin, clear to the bone
Nothing has changed on the back burner
There's not much happening here
Sometimes I think you must be a slow learner
To wake up year after year, oh!
Nothing has changed on the back burner
There's not much happening here
Sometimes I think you must be a slow learner
To wake up year after year
With nothing to do, nothing to say
Nothing to take this old feeling away
Back burner
Oh, oh, oh, yeah
Nothing has changed on the back burner
There's not much happening here
Sometimes I think you must be a slow learner
To wake up year after year, after year, after...
Nothing has changed on the back burner
There's not much happening here
Sometimes I think you must be a slow learner
To wake up year after year
With not much to say, not much to do
Not much to show you that your calling is true
One day, it's gonna be through
This back burner
Back burner
Back burner
Say, man
What you cooking back there?
It must be awful good
It's been on there a long time
Ooh, hey, hey, hey, hey
Give it to me
Get back
Way, way, way, way back
Ooh...
B-b-b-b-b-b-b-back burner
