Living In A Burning House

(Selwyn Birchwood Music admin. by Eyeball Music)

I'm smellin' smoke and I know something's burning
But I'm just too scared to look
If I close my eyes and ignore all the warnings
I won't have to know the truth
My heart says "leave," but my legs won't let me
I can't bring myself to leave my home
But I am finding out, that there ain't no doubt
I'm living in a burning house
Living in a burning house
I'm living in a burning house
Living in a burning house

I see a glow; it paints my shadow on the wall
And the flicker makes it dance
The air has grown thicker; I can hardly breathe at all
But all I know is this don't feel like romance
My heart says "leave," but my legs won't let me
I can't bring myself to leave my home
But I am finding out, that there ain't no doubt
I'm living in a burning house
Living in a burning house
I'm living in a burning house
Living in a burning house

My heart says "leave," but my legs won't let me
I can't bring myself to leave my home
But I am finding out, that there ain't no doubt
I'm living in a burning house (oh, yeah)
Living in a burning house (house on fire)
I'm living in a burning house (burning down this house)
Living in a burning house (I'm burning up)
