Burning Up Lyrics by Ladytron

Velocifero

2008

[Intro: Helen Marnie]
I wrote a protest song about you, about you
Set off on the long march without you, without you
[Verse 1: Helen Marnie]
Set off on the long march without you, without you
I wrote a protest song about you, about you
About what's left that lies between us, I'm walking
So many things worth burning for
[Chorus: Helen Marnie]
I set myself on fire without you, without you
I wrote a protest song about you, about you
That not a soul was meant to hear, except you
[Verse 2: Helen Marnie]
I wrote a protest song about you, about you
I cheated gravity to chase you, to chase you
And through the burning space between us, you're falling
You have a long way, long way to fall
[Chorus: Helen Marnie]
I set myself on fire without you, without you
I wrote a protest song about you, about you
That not a soul was meant to hear, except you
[Interlude: Helen Marnie]
So many things worth burning for
So many things worth burning for
So many things worth burning for
So many things worth burning for
So many things worth burning for
So many things worth burning for
So many things worth burning for
