The Roues Brothers - The Burnin' of the Soul Lyrics

We all get older now you know we gotta die
No one around here can tell you the reason why
We build our mountains up of memories to hold
Need I remind you the end will find you
Nothing can hide you from the burnin' of the soul

Dead things are scattered in the places of dead roads
If you get your deal I know you'll be goin' for the gold now
But all hearts get broken their like diamonds crushed from coal
Need I remind you it will define you
No one design can touch the burnin' of the soul

Your soul is burnin' but you're never, never gonna see the light
If you don't realize your blind your eyes won't long for sight
So cast me out like so much driftwood on rivers flowing out to sea
That's something you could never be baby/ Don't ever try to be like me
I'll take my driftwood dreams and melt into eternity

So if you're gonna betray me don't delay don't hesitate
Stick your knife in my back relax the hours getting way too late
The moon's gone down it's getting darker and it's oh so cold
Need I remind you this dark will blind you
No one will find you in the burnin' of the soul
The Burnin' of the Soul
The Burnin' of the Soul
The Burnin' of the Soul
