Burn Out Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Patience only gets you so far
Blood will get you further
Pain will only make your heart hard
Tossed in furious weather
Innocence is beautiful to see
Won't you box it up for me?
For me

[Pre-Chorus]
Oh, give me strength, and give me peace
Does anyone out there want to hear me?

[Chorus]
It's just another downpour, don't let it get the best of you
It's only up from the floor, light everything inside of you
Don't burn out, don't burn out on me
Don't burn out, don't burn out on me

[Verse 2]
Sadness is my enemy
I fear time will age him gently
Walking by my side for all these years
Seems that we've grown friendly
Happiness is beautiful to see
Won't you box it up for me?
For me

[Pre-Chorus]
Oh, give me strength, and give me peace
Does anyone out there want to hear me?

[Chorus]
It's just another downpour, don't let it get the best of you
It's only up from the floor, light everything inside of you
Don't burn out, don't burn out on me
Don't burn out, don't burn out on me

[Bridge]
It's just another downpour
It's just another downpour
I won't give up
I, I won't give up
I, I won't give up
I, I won't

[Chorus]
It's just another downpour, don't let it get the best of you
It's only up from the floor, light everything inside of you
I don't wanna let you go, I don't wanna let you go
Don't burn out, don't burn out on me
I don't wanna let you go, I don't wanna let you go
Don't burn out, don't burn out on me

I think this song is about depression and suicide. "Happiness is beautiful to see...don't let it get the best of you...don't burn out...sadness is my enemy" they are all about how depression may seem overwelming, butbherebua hope and you shouldn't give up.

I love Imagine dragons, and this song is great, but why do they have to swear?

@zachariahbaird They don't! If you listen closely you can hear that the actual lyrics are "It's just another downpour"

@zachariahbaird It's actually "downpour", I looked it up on their website.

I just wanna point out that the actual line is "It's just another downpour don't let it get the best of you" Google has the same mistake in their lyrics as well.
