burning the candle - skin yard lyrics

[verse 1]
a candle burns
oh, at both ends
your heart is beating
this might be the end
you think of things
but they come too fast
your mind is full
of thoughts too fast

[chorus]
and here, in this room
a candle burns at both ends
[?], a way to review
the words inscribed, this is the end

[verse 2]
the tv’s flying
around your room
the newsman weeps
this is the truth
you b*tton your shirt
but there’s no place to go
the newsman weeps
this is the end
[chorus]
and here, in your room
a candle burning at both ends
your mind is full of thoughts too fast
a candle’s burning at both ends

[bridge]
i’m chipping off the paint with a knife
the clock in the room smiles with spite
i’m looking at photos of eyes from within
of paintings grinning on the wall
the tv, cordless, it flies through the air
i wipe the sweat from my brow
the clock ticks, it’s ticking, tocking on
i move away, the light it burns my eyes
i know it’s the end
the candle burns from both ends
light [?]
the candle burns
time’s ticking away
chipping paint from the wall
tv’s flying to and fro
time’s ticking, tocking on the wall
it ticks away for a fall
time’s ticking away!
[instrumental break]

[verse 3]
a candle’s burning at both ends
your heart is beating
this could be the end
you think of things
but they come too fast
your mind is full
of thoughts too fast

[outro]
and here, in this room
a candle’s burning at both ends (this is the end)
the paint is mounting (this is the end)
the clock is ticking (this is the end)
the light is swimming (this is the end)
the tv movie (this is the end)
this is the end
this is the end
this is the end
this is the end
