Lyrics & Translation

[English]

Oh-oh

...

It's unpredictable

The eyes we think we show and tell

Been hiding in the cold but even on our own, it melts

If the vision is a lie

Why do we feel so alive?

It's enough for you and I, you and I

From our conscience to our mind

There's too much here to disguise

It's enough for you and I, you and I

...

We keep burning, we keep burning (burning)

We keep burning, we keep burning

We keep burning, we keep burning (burning)

We keep burning, we keep burning

Exhale into the breeze, the smoke we've never seen, we wait, mm

The river starts to flow to places that we know we'll stay

If the vision is a lie

Why do we feel so alive?

It's enough for you and I, you and I

From my conscience to your mind

There's too much here to disguise

It's enough for you and I, you and I

...

We keep burning, we keep burning

We keep burning, we keep burning

We keep burning, we keep burning (burning)

We keep burning, we keep burning (burning)

We keep burning, we keep burning

We keep burning, we keep burning (burning)

We keep burning, we keep burning

We keep burning, we keep burning (burning)

...

(Burning, burning, burning)

(Burning, burning, burning)

(Burning, burning, burning)

(Burning, burning, burning)

(Burning, burning, burning)

...
