[Verse 1] My eyes are cinders now Blink and they crack The day went dry And left me black I held the smoke too long Let it in my face Now every tear is gone Gone without a trace [Pre-Chorus] Scratch at the lid It only hurts more I keep the hurt in time Keep count on the floor [Chorus] My burning dry eyes Burning dry eyes I can't wash it out My burning dry eyes My burning dry eyes Burning dry eyes I stare through the heat My burning dry eyes [Verse 2] You left a harsh white ring Around the room A bitter afterglow In a paper bloom I taste the iron air Under my tongue I laugh like cracked glass For what I've become [Pre-Chorus] Scratch at the lid It only hurts more I keep the hurt in time Keep count on the floor [Chorus] My burning dry eyes Burning dry eyes I can't wash it out My burning dry eyes My burning dry eyes Burning dry eyes I stare through the heat My burning dry eyes [Bridge] Vision bends and breaks... I saw the ember I saw the wake I saw your name In the ash line glow Now every look I give Cuts slow [Final Chorus] My burning dry eyes Burning dry eyes I can't wash it out My burning dry eyes My burning dry eyes Burning dry eyes I stare through the heat My burning dry eyes My burning dry eyes Burning dry eyes I can't shut it down My burning dry eyes
