Intro (w/Fig. 1)
=====
Part 1 (w/Fig. 1)
======
Read some Kerouac and it put me on the tracks to burn a little brighter now
Something about roman candles fizzing out, shine a little light on me now
Found a strange fascination with a liquid fixation, alcohol can thrill me now
It's getting late in the game to show any pride or shame
I just burn a little brighter now, burn a little brighter now
Doctor says my liver looks like leaving with my lover, need another time-out now
Like any sort of hero turning down to zero still standing out in any crowd
Pulling seventeen with experience and dreams, sweating out a happy hour
Where you're hiding 29 you know it ain't a crime
To burn a little brighter now, burn a little brighter now
Interlude
=========
Dr. Finlay: "And my advice is if you maintain this lifestyle you won't reach 30"
Torch: "Christ - it's a romantic way to go really, it's part of the heritage
It's your round i'n'it?"
Gtr. 2 plays this is the background. I have placed lyrics above to indicate when.
..reach 30.. ..christ.. ..romantic way to go..

Part 2 (w/Fig. 1)
======
We burn a little brighter now
Read some Kerouac and it put me on the tracks to burn a little brighter now
It was something about roman candles fizzing out, shine a little light on me now
Found a strange fascination with a liquid fixation, alcohol thrill me now
Getting late in the game to show any pride or shame
Burn a little brighter now, we burn a little brighter now
We burn a little brighter now
