Jamie Winchester - Burning Beds

There’s only one thing that I can say to you
There’s a sign on the door that everyone comes through
There’s just one way to make it to the other side
If you follow what you’re feeling and you leave your mind behind

So take a deep breath, and have a look around
All the peoples feet placed firmly on the ground
It doesn’t look like anybody’s satisfied
Though every moment of their life they tried, they tried,
they tried

And it won’t be easy to get round your head
You’ll be stepping over burning bridges, burning beds
Try everything you want to, throw your worries to the winds
And forget all the things they said, all the people who would hold you
Keep you right here on the ground, where you’re safe where you’re sound instead
Brain dead

70 years don’t seem that much to me
It’s like half a leaf on your average family tree
And if the leaf has struggled will the tree grow strong,
Or does this self-perpetuating song drag on and on and on?

And it won’t be easy to get round your head
You’ll be stepping over burning bridges, burning beds
Try everything you want to, throw your worries to the winds
And forget everything they said, all the people who would hold you
Keep you right here on the ground, where you’re safe where you’re sound instead
Ignore every border, take nobody’s orders, don’t follow where they have led
Those brain dead
