I regret the things I’ve done
A man burning at both ends
A man burning at both ends
A man burning at both ends
Who had a hand to lend
The tide though high and getting higher
No painless way to put me out
No painless way to put me out
Look, look, look, look, look up your the window please
Bitter words and fiery tongues
A dangerous thing to know about
You’ll see a light where before no light had been
Or you’re walking barefoot over coals
You either make a bed that’s cold
And then turned to wind
And letters burned to smoke
Back to you again
Wetted down and with the need
Or you’re walking barefoot over coals
I lit a fire underneath myself
Look, look, look, look, look down your street for me
Could not put out the man on fire
I’ve burned everybody
You either make a bed that’s cold
No one put me in this hell
A dangerous thing to know about
We ran barefoot through the reeds
Now I’m blazing the same old trail
