Lyrics

Don't try to put me on a pedestal before I'm gone
The world keeps spinning no matter which side you're on
I hear a lot of talk
From everybody out to run before they walk

This world us burning up (burning up)
We sparked a fire (we sparked a fire)
Why do you keep holding this over my head?
I'll do it on my own as long as I live
If I get high enough (high enough)
Nothing can burn me
Why do you keep holding this over my head?
I'll do it on my own as long as I live (as long as I live)

My soul's too heavy from all that I've done
And my chest can't carry the weight of my heart
I feel so temporary, please tell me I'm not
'Cause I'm sick of flying too close, too close to the sun

This world is burning up (burning up)
We sparked a fire (we sparked a fire)
Why do you keep holding this over my head?
I'll do it on my own as long as I live
If I get high enough (high enough)
Nothing can burn me (nothing can burn me)
Why do you keep holding this over my head?
I'll do it on my own as long as I live

Don't try to eat with me now
If you wouldn't starve with me then
If I'm bailing you out
It's 'cause I'm tying up, tying up loose ends

This world is burning up (burning up)
We sparked a fire (we sparked a fire)
Why do you keep holding this over my head?
I'll do it on my own as long as I live
If I get high enough (high enough)
Nothing can burn me (nothing can burn me)
Why do you keep holding this over my head?
I'll do it on my own as long as I live

I do it for the days that I couldn't afford to eat
Living off food stamps week after week after
Do it for the nights that I couldn't sleep
Bloodshot eyes working on this CD

You can run but you cannot hide
This is Shaun Keith calling to find out where the hell
The Kingdom of Giants songs are
Call me back
