Lyrics
Backburner You said we’d be back together again in just a little while You wanted some time for yourself, Then you left with a smile You started a fight over nothing at all and then you pushed me to the wall You always seemed to hold out some hope How could I know it was just hangman’s rope? CH Oh, backburner that’s where you put me Backburner where I don’t matter Backburner that’s where I’m living Backburner…. I don’t know why I didn’t see you coming… there was writing, on the wall You smiled and said you loved me still as you zoomed in for the kill You’d argue over anything, just kept throwing back my ring You blame me for everything in your life I just wanted you to be my wife You kept hurting me trying to make me cry So, I just have to fly Words and Music by Mike McDevitt © 2009 by Michael F.
