Refugee: Burning from the inside out [lyrics]

Refugee

Burning from the inside out

I found my hero on the video screen

He was perfect, exactly what I wanted to be

Now, I'm not really sure, and I don't know what it means

But he'd smash his guitar

And he'd jump and he'd scream

And I'd feel something burning inside

Something I just can't explain

But I kept playing his records

Over and over again

CHORUS

And I was burning

Burning from the inside out

We used to hide out all night

Back behind the limosines

To get a glimpse of our hero

Maybe catch his disease

Now I'm not really sure

And I don't know what it means

But we paid twenty bucks a head

Just to watch him bleed

One more rock and roll heretic

And he's dying just as fast as he can

He's easy to watch, it's only hard

When you try and understand

Exactly why he's burning

Burning from the inside out

Yeah we even sell tickets to

Watch him, burning from the inside out

Yeah, he's burning from the inside out

Hey mister, do you know how it gets

When the soul starts to blister

And the hands start to sweat

Running through the rain

Trying not to get wet

Forget it

Just sit back and watch me burning

Burning from the inside out...
