Burning Blue Flame

Smoke curls up in the cold night air

Whiskey burns but I just don't care

Shadows dance on the cracked old wall

Life's a fistfight and I take it all

Burning blue flame deep in my chest

Can't put it out can't find no rest

Every step a fight every breath a scream

Chasing ghosts in a shattered dream

Strings hum low like my weary soul

Heartbeat heavy but it won't let go

Streetlights flicker like a dying star

Lost my way but I ain't gone far

Burning blue flame deep in my chest

Can't put it out can't find no rest

Every step a fight every breath a scream

Chasing ghosts in a shattered dream

The wind howls loud like it's got a say

But I push back I won't fade away

This battered heart it still beats loud

Defiant and fierce in the darkest cloud

Burning blue flame deep in my chest

Can't put it out can't find no rest

Every step a fight every breath a scream

Chasing ghosts in a shattered dream
