Paint the walls with red
Do what you can to bring me down
Because the lines across my brow
Are there from laughing you clown

Break the bread in 2
The bigger half was always for you
The decrepit wall that has new bricks
Wont be broken again

(refren)
ooooooooo Look how life Goes on
oooooooo0 The Burnt Out light shines on

You took the wishing pill
To see if this could survive
You groped no clutched at straws
It was a mountain that could not be climbed

And I hope all will be well
On the next turn you take
Weather its left or may it be right
I prey there will be no fight

(refren)
ooooooooo Look how life Goes on
oooooooo0 The Burnt Out light shines on

The Burnt Out light,The Burnt Out light
The Burnt Out light shines on

ooooooooo Look how life Goes on
oooooooo0 The Burnt Out light shines on
