There's poison in my drinking glass
Don't stop, just sip it down
And in a swirling masquerade of style
My body hits the ground

I'm beautiful when I'm asleep
Martini kisses land on my
Blistered b_____ scarlet lips
The bottles in my hand

(BURN OUT!) Not fade away
(BURN OUT!) Not fade away
(BURN OUT!) Not fade...away...

(BURN OUT!) Not fade away
(BURN OUT!) Not fade away
(BURN OUT!) Not fade...away...

I'll speak in riddles so you can understand
I'll draw in pencil so you can trace with pen
So in love with me, like sand to wet feet
I'll write both our names into the wet concrete

We're glistening like silver spoons
Beneath the summer night
Oh, can you smell the subtle winter frost
As the flowers start to cry?

The autumn winds are bringing grapes
To all the emerald trees
They're so beautiful and dead
Just make their colors slowly bleed

(BURN OUT!) Not fade away
(BURN OUT!) Not fade away
(BURN OUT!) Not fade...away...

(BURN OUT!) Not fade away
(BURN OUT!) Not fade away
(BURN OUT!) Not fade...away...

I'll speak in riddles so you can understand
I'll draw in pencil so you can trace with pen
So in love with me, like sand to wet feet
I'll write both our names into the wet concrete

The p___s...will fade...away
BURN OUT, NOT FADE AWAY
BURN OUT, NOT FADE AWAY

The king's...at his check...mate
BURN OUT, NOT FADE AWAY
BURN OUT, NOT FADE AWAY

And I sit here with a sick grin
Choking as i laugh until I die...

BURN OUT, NOT FADE AWAY
BURN OUT, NOT FADE AWAY
BURN OUT, NOT FADE AWAY
BURN OUT, NOT FADE...A...WAY...
