Bad is better than the burn, some people never learn

Bad is better than the burn



I'll take the blame, it's my mistake

One heart goes free, one heart just aches

It's an easy kill within my range

I made the break honey you kept the pain



And yesterday means nothin' to me now - doesn't matter

I'll keep it hid, you'll live somehow



Chorus:

Bad is better than the burn, truth is better than a lie

Some people never learn, bad is better than the burn



I fished love's kiss from the wishing well

Wound up in heaven, stayed around for hell

It's a common crime to live this lie

I see no point after love has died



I'll be the one who said goodbye

And I'll take the heat for the tears you cry



chorus



Bad is better than the burn, or the hurt that's hidden in the heart

They say you pay with what you earn, bad is better than the burn



Cold is the shoulder that turns away, curses the man on judgement day

Damned by the brand, done too soon

Crawled out of this house and howled at the moon



(Solo)



And yesterday means nothin' to me now

I'll keep it hid, you'll live somehow



chorus repeats out...
