Mississippi Burning lyrics

More nightmares
Someone wake me when they`re through
Stop my lover`s ghost from trying to protrude
(You`re burning, you`re burning)
It`s chaotic, but I`ve got it
You`re letter scratched across my throat
Like some painter`s ink, spilled the canvas soiling parts of me

Cover up, cover up, all the fusion`s lost
I know this sucks but one day you`ll meet up
I miss the softness of your sound
The taste of you left in my mouth

Is Mississippi done yet burning?
Sick sounds like stomach`s stinging
I search out, but you cannot be found
A red horizon in the south
Is Mississippi done yet burning?
Most nights bleat every feeling
I must get back to you somehow
I must get back to you

Your shadow
Now lies against the moon
The skin I touched that once
Kissed has come unglued
(You`re burning, you`re burning)
It`s chaotic, but I`ve got it
More screams than anyone should hear
The voice of you stabs in my chest
Forged and faithless

Cover up, cover up, all the fusion`s lost
I know this sucks but one day you`ll meet up
I miss the softness of your sound
The taste of you left in my mouth

Is Mississippi done yet burning?
Sick sounds like stomach`s stinging
I search out, but you cannot be found
A red horizon in the south
Is Mississippi done yet burning?
Most nights bleat every feeling
I must get back to you somehow
I must get back to you

Darling boy
Lift your chin up for me now
For my face to see
And I am smiling looking down
I know you`re out of breath
You`re hit by the way I`ve left
Just hold me tried and true
For I`ll be waiting

Waiting here for you

So dim these lights, I won`t be found
This haunting stops right here and now
There`s pain and in his eyes of fixed dreaming
I`m tired without you, so let it be
So dim these lights, I won`t be found
This haunting stops right here and now
There`s pain in his eyes of fixed dreaming
I`m tired without you, so let it be

Is Mississippi done yet burning?
Most nights bleat every feeling
I must get back to you somehow
I must get back to you
