The Light You Burned (Explicit)

The Light You Burned (Explicit) - Hilltop Hoods/Trials

I thought we had

Such a good thing going yeah

Now the light you burned

Is dying out so slowly

For starters ain't heartless I don't hate them

But I was starving and parted our relations

I never live in the past like the forsaken

I was I'll you were never the master of your patience

We were martyrs for this mayhem

Now you're passing your a** out to artists for replacements

I know it's harder to father than to make friends

But you see I'm proud regardless where my day ends

It was a task to ask you just to pay rent

And you laughed cause my heart was in the basement

Never targeted the market just to make ends

Wasn't all scars there were parts of it that made sense

Walking away were the hardest conversations

Hope you learned if you're smart you shouldn't date friends

And I still don't understand you

So I gotta say f**k you thank you huh c'mon

I thought we had

Man I thought that we had

Such a good thing going yeah

But we don't but we don't but we don't

Now the light you burned

Now the light that you burned

Is dying out so slowly

And we go and we go and we go

Must be hard trying to keep the facade

Here we are you nothing me needing a laugh

We from driving to not even a seat in the car

Still lying now to kissing every cheek of my a**

From family tree to just another leaf in the park

Hope these bright ideas help you see in the dark

It's like first you say nothing second you blame others

Third burn the bridge like the first Rage cover

See they don't know and they never will what we've been through

It's not you it's me nope it's you

I've got a lot of love for things you did

If it only added up to them things you missed

Guess that's it heard that you were running with him

Saw you settled down now and had a couple of kids

Sh*t the world keeps spinning like a bottle top

See the light you burned started something that I ain't gonna stop

What a soulful old anthem

You used to burn brighter now you couldn't hold a lighter to a lantern

Went from fighter to a phantom

Invited inside of my life but you a bantam

Weight with some heavyweight issues

Had to separate with you get you heavy-grade tissues

For all your mood swings so not amusing

You could blow the rock out a mood ring

You can blow the rocks and the tubing

Man you can go super hoe the block for a shoestring

Budget for all I care and this is what I got

For all my caring

So f**k it

Nah I ain't sleeping on the couch you can sleep on the carpet

I'm a take the bed and sleep like a starfish

Hog all the blankets and sleep off the Lagers

And wake up in the morning like we feeling marvellous

Now the light you burned going yeah

Now the light you burned going yeah

Now the light you burned going yeah

Now the light you burned going yeah
