Burned Lyrics
On a Tuesday in December,
when you walked out I remember.
You were smiling as you turned around,
in the hallway, you lingered in the doorway.
And still the words you said to me, make me think of how we used to be.
Hand to my heart, I want to be the one who always learned.
She said, You're just like the sun.
I get so burned when you are close to me.
In the back room of a mansion,
you are planning your deception.
Always calling, never phoning.
I'm a victim of another's war.
And still the words you said to me,
Come ringing in your silent symphony.
Hand to my heart, I want to be the one who always learned.
She says, You're just like the sun.
I get so burned when you are close to me.
And still it hurt so bad, (I thought I'd get one over on you),
you know, I hope you're sad, (you deserve it more than anyone).
I could give you one good reason.
You could be my winning season.
All the things we could have been, just fell away.
Hand to my heart, I want to be the one who always learned.
She says, You're just like the sun. I get so burned when you are close to me.
I get so burned when you are close to me.
when you walked out I remember.
You were smiling as you turned around,
in the hallway, you lingered in the doorway.
And still the words you said to me, make me think of how we used to be.
She said, You're just like the sun.
I get so burned when you are close to me.
you are planning your deception.
Always calling, never phoning.
I'm a victim of another's war.
And still the words you said to me,
Come ringing in your silent symphony.
She says, You're just like the sun.
I get so burned when you are close to me.
you know, I hope you're sad, (you deserve it more than anyone).
You could be my winning season.
All the things we could have been, just fell away.
She says, You're just like the sun. I get so burned when you are close to me.
I get so burned when you are close to me.

good song. great band
ohhhhhh!! i love this song....
This makes me remember shit that happened to me in my own life and it's still going on. I dated a girl for 4-6 months depending on the "official" date we started going out. I loved her more than you can imagine and she told me the same, but in the end we chose to split because of complications with school. I later found out that she liked another guy and that was the reason we "didn't get along" any more. Now she wants to be best friends after what we went though and it's ridiculous. This song sounds like a story where someone loved another person and they just screwed them over but still looking for what they want out of them. And now it burns them to see that person now knowing what they did to them.
the way i see it, she broke up with him because of her personal issues and insecurities: i'm a victim of another's war (like her own wars within herself).. and the chorus speaks about how she thinks she's not good enough (i get so burned when you get close to me).. basically she's been trying to drown her insecurity but it eventually caught up to her (the words you said to me come ringing in your silent symphony).. sad part is the guy hates her because he doesn't know about it..
