Torch Song Liedtext

Read some Kerouac and it put me on the tracks
to burn a little brighter now
Something about roman candles fizzing out,
shine a little light on me now
Found a strange fascination with a liquid fixation, alcohol can thrill me now
It's getting late in the game to show any pride or shame
I just burn a little brighter now,
burn a little brighter now
 
Doctor says my liver looks like leaving with my lover, need another time-out now
Like any sort of hero turning down to zero
still standing out in any crowd
Pulling seventeen with experience and dreams,
sweating out a happy hour
Where you're hiding 29 you know it ain't a crime
To burn a little brighter now,
burn a little brighter now
 
Dr. Finlay: "And my advice is if you maintain this lifestyle you won't reach 30"
Torch: "Christ - it's a romantic way to go really, it's part of the heritage, it's your round i'n'it?"
 
We burn a little brighter now
Read some Kerouac and it put me on the tracks
to burn a little brighter now
It was something about roman candles fizzing out,
shine a little light on me now
Found a strange fascination with a liquid fixation, alcohol thrill me now
Getting late in the game to show any pride or shame
Burn a little brighter now, we burn a little brighter now
We burn a little brighter now
