Marillion - Torch Song Lyrics
(fish, steve rothery, mark kelly, pete trewavas, ian mosley)Read some kerouac and it put me on the tracks to burn a little brighter nowSomething about roman candles fizzing out, shine a little light on me nowFound a strange fascination with a liquid fixation, alcohol can thrill me nowIts getting late in the game to show any pride or shameI just burn a little brighter now, burn a little brighter now, yeahDoctor says my liver looks like leaving with my lover, need another time out nowLike any sort of hero turning down to zero still standing out in any crowdPulling seventeen with experience and dreams, sweating out a happy hourWhere youre hiding 29 you know it aint a crime to burn a little brighter nowBurn a little brighter now, burn a little brighter now, burn a little brighter nowDr. finlay: and my advice is if you maintain this lifestyle you wont reach 30Torch: christ -- its a romantic way to go really, its part of the heritage, its your round init?We burn a little brighter now, yeahRead some kerouac and it put me on the tracks to burn a little brighter nowIt was something about roman candles fizzing out, shine a little light on me nowFound a strange fascination with a liquid fixation, alcohol thrill me nowGetting late in the game to show any pride or shame burn a little brighter nowWe burn a little brighter now, yeahBurn a little brighter now, we burn a little brighter now
