At Both Ends Video (MV)

In a city of sinners
You can't risk being a beginner
I know how that goes
If you want to survive
You've got to swallow your pride
And destroy your insides to stay alive
But the ice is getting thinner
And these long nights are taking their toll on you
I don't mean to sound bitter
But you know that I know it's true
So I thought I'd warn you
If you burn the candle
At both ends
Your entire life
You'll wind up dead
You won't see it coming
And all that you believe
Will wind up at your feet
Broken and shattered on the floor
And now you've got it
Attention that you crave
Stop pretending you're brave
I know you're scared
You're unprepared for what they'll throw at you
What are you gonna do?
I know you're living your life on your own terms
You're washing me off your hands
Cuz I'm just a germ
Maybe I'm out of line
And maybe I'm just wasting my time
But I thought you should know
If you burn the candle
At both ends
Your entire life
You'll wind up dead
You won't see it coming
And all that you believe
Will wind up at your feet
Broken and shattered on the floor
And I know
I know
That you're not coming home
And I know
I know
You're not coming home
Tonight
Oh no!
He's getting preachy again
Watch out!
He's got opinions
You better listen to them
Or you're gonna burn the candle
At both ends
Go!
If you burn the candle
At both ends
Your entire life
You'll just wind up dead
You won't see it coming
And all that you believe
Will wind up at your feet
If you burn the candle
At both ends
Your entire life
You'll wind up dead
You won't see it coming
And all that you believe
Will wind up at your feet
Broken and shattered on the floor
And I know
I know
That you're not coming home
And I know
I know
You're not coming home
Tonight
