Head straight for the edge Same mistakes again Lessons never learned Strike the match and watch it burn Burn myself once again I ride it out to the bitter end It's easy to ignore writing on the wall Block out all concerned Head for the crash and burn Burn myself once again I ride it out to the bitter end When will I ever learn? I strike the match and watch it burn Good intentions pave the road A one way street and we all know where it goes I see the warnings and how this ends I block it out and fail myself once again Burn, burn myself once again I ride it out to the bitter end When will I ever learn? I strike the match and watch it burn I'll watch it burn I'LL WATCH IT BURN A constant battle that never ends Against the prison walls I put myself in I'LL WATCH IT BURN Under the pressure, I start to fold As this demon tears away at my soul I'LL WATCH IT BURN I won't go out, no not that way I steel myself and live to fight another day I'LL WATCH IT BURN Burn, burn, I'll strike the match and watch it burn
