Burning for What by The Yelling Lyrics

The weight of existence
Can crush a boy's dying innocence
Standing there in the schoolyard
With rough head and a good start
And born free bad and restless
Never care what anybody says
Advice can seem useless
But you should take it and use it

Use it for what?
Use it for what?
Use it for what?
Use it for what?

Going home to the ocean
Feeling like nobody's son
Just a cold wind blowing
Right then, should've known when
While there's people screaming
I'm on the news for a reason
For reasons I can't imagine
Imagine anyone having
Reason for what?
Reason for what?
Reason for what?
Reason for what?
Reason for what?
Reason for what?
Reason for what?
Reason for what?

So, so you think it's gonna get any easier
But I know
Gotta leave the streets looking for change
Hey, hey, hey
To the black eye over the ocean
It's coming close
I can feel a change coming today
Hey, hey, hey
Hey, hey, hey
Hey, hey, hey
Hey, hey, hey

Heard a voice in the distance
Forever been when you listen
Heard it once in the schoolyard
Was drowned out by a speeding car
Some of these saw 'em restless
They never care what anybody says
But flesh and bone been an empire
They hit the sun, they watched it catch fire
Burning for what?
Burning for what?
Burning for what?
Burning for what?
Burning for what?
Burning for what?
Burning for what?
Burning for what?

So, so you think it's gonna get any easier
But I know
Gotta leave the streets looking for change
Hey, hey, hey
To the black eye over the ocean
It's coming close
I can feel a change coming today
Hey, hey, hey
Hey, hey, hey
Hey, hey, hey
Hey, hey, hey
Hey, hey, hey
Hey, hey, hey
Hey, hey, hey

Hey, hey, hey, hey
Hey, hey, hey, hey
Hey, hey, hey, hey
Oh-oh-oh
