For What You Burn Lyrics by Shihad

Killjoy

1995

What are you still doing here?
Your stability offers no comfort to me
It won't fill me up
Process what's going through my head
What I've done and what I've said
It won't help me out
Ever thought that by expanding your own mind
Instead of putting me through your own design
You might start learning
Why so many of us feel we don't belong
So unreal in what you built here
'cause what you built here...
Don't fill me up
Don't help me out
I can't feel my feet on the ground
Feel the edge of a new sensation
Life with you it's so complicated
Won't you let me find my own way
'cause what we've got happening here
Ain't nothing bad, ain't nothing you should fear
It's a celebration
'cause I learn from what you learn
But I burn for what you burn
And I think it's time we let the past lie 'cause the future is what I earn
Pass this world on before the sun goes down
There's untapped beauty to be found
This time is my time
And that fills me up
And now I found
I can feel my
My feet on the ground
So lift your head up to the golden future
Weak get strong as time deserts the past
And in the truth we give so that our souls can live
Come on, get off the beaten path
Faith is the reason
Love is the reason
You are the reason
That I still live
So lift your head up to the golden future
Strong weaken as time deserts the past
And in the truth we give so that your souls can live
Come on, get off the beaten path
And that fills me up
And that fills me up now
And that fills me up
And that fills me up now
'cause I learn from what you learn
I burn for what you burn
Fills me up now
Yeah, yeah, yeah
