Burn a Picture by Red Vox Lyrics
[Verse 1]
You can throw your conscience away
Just to land a good part in the play
Maybe there's a reason
That you feel so empty
Broken bottles and junk on the floor
It's hard to notice when your eye's on the score
If you burn a picture
To obtain the ashes
A bit of wind could blow what's left away
[Verse 2]
You can leave your heart at the door
You can waste all your time wanting more
You can play a victim
To a broken mirror
You can sell yourself for a dime
Step on anyone who borrows your time
You can be a hero
To your own reflection
You can feed your head with empty praise
[Verse 1 (reprise)]
If you burn a picture
To obtain the ashes
You resign to throw yourself away
[Outro]
There's another, there's another light
There's another, there's another light
There's another, there's another light
There's another, there's another light
There's another, there's another light...
You can throw your conscience away
Just to land a good part in the play
Maybe there's a reason
That you feel so empty
Broken bottles and junk on the floor
It's hard to notice when your eye's on the score
If you burn a picture
To obtain the ashes
A bit of wind could blow what's left away
[Verse 2]
You can leave your heart at the door
You can waste all your time wanting more
You can play a victim
To a broken mirror
You can sell yourself for a dime
Step on anyone who borrows your time
You can be a hero
To your own reflection
You can feed your head with empty praise
[Verse 1 (reprise)]
If you burn a picture
To obtain the ashes
You resign to throw yourself away
[Outro]
There's another, there's another light
There's another, there's another light
There's another, there's another light
There's another, there's another light
There's another, there's another light...
