Lyrics Heartburn - Ben Chaverin

You′re the flame in my head, you're the heat in my heart
You′re the beat of the drum, with the flick of a spark
But I won't go there again, won't go there again
Leaning into the noise, feeling only the sound
Hear the ring of a voice, the kick is really too loud
But I won′t go there again, won′t go there again...

A darkness over my eyes, I shout, I dance, I want, I cry once more
My consciousness won't have the lie, won′t somebody get me out this door?
It's the fatal game that I play, all for the sake of not running away
I promise its only for today, only for today...

Stay away from the glass, stay away from the glass
Is this the point to every test I′ve passed?
Do I want it again? Do I want it again?
Someone's hitting a Juul, karaoke, some pool
Why did I go to school, oh no! I′m going in circles!
But I wanna go there again, but I wanna go there again...

A darkness over my eyes, I shout, I dance, I want, I cry once more
My consciousness won't have the lie, won't somebody get me out this door?
It′s the fatal game that I play, all for the sake of not running away
I promise its only for today, only for today...

Didn′t want this to last, I'll put it all in the past
I was only there cause I got asked
But now I made my mistakes...
It′s just I need to close the windows in my head so I can function
I can wake up in the morning, I can get out of bed
Well that's my lousy explanation, I ain′t here to excuse myself...

Who have I become?

A darkness over my eyes, I shout, I dance, I want, I cry for more
My consciousness won't have the lie, won′t somebody get me out this door?
It's the fatal game that I play, all for the sake of not running far away
I promise its only for today, it's only for today...
