Verse 1:
Wake up in the morning, in the cold out on the street
Havent got the money, to buy everything to me
you teach a lesson, but im not willing to learn
And I take to much for granted, like its none of my concern
Chorus:
(Oh, Oh) Burning sugar, Burning paper, Burning candle, at both ends.
(x2)
Verse 2:
I need a solution, but there is no remedy
We avoid the question, cause the answers out of reach
They will feed you dirt, and wash your face until it shines
But I'm tired of the testing, every silver in my eyes
Chorus:
(Oh, Oh) Burning sugar, Burning paper, Burning candle, At both ends.
(x2)
Verse 3:
People around the world are born and dying endlessly
We need not forget respect and passion, love and empathy
Peace around the world is still a possibility
But no one cares enough to try, I guess it wasn't meant to be
Chorus:
(Oh, Oh) Burning sugar, Burning paper, Burning candle, At both ends.
(x2)
