Lyrics
Stop (Burning A Hole In my Brain)
I swear your life has been written in pencil
You read scripts...you have no time for books
Your day jobs don’t pay for much
You’re filthy from all those dirty looks
I wish you’d stop burning a hole in my brain
Before these thoughts are permanently engrained
I met you first down the street from my favorite spot
You know the one that’s a cross between a bowling alley
& a bar
You had a scent not bought over the counter
You were out of sight but never very far
I wish you’d stop burning a hole in my brain
Before these thoughts are permanently engrained
With every smile it becomes increasingly clear
You’re corrupting both my hemispheres
You’re in a club that doesn’t deserve you
I think they laugh with you, but I’m never really sure
You get the leads and all the solos
But I’m still not sure what you’re auditioning for
I wish you’d stop burning a hole in my brain
Before these thoughts are permanently engrained
With every smile it becomes increasingly clear
You’re corrupting both my hemispheres
