Keep my dreams in a papercup, hold on to my faith
why did they pretend not to see
buried deep inside my heart in many different ways
i can't tell you what they did to me
see that look in the teacher's eyes, look into his heart
can you see the dark stains all around
eyes wide open in the night, i will play my part
there is no escape, i am bound
oho oho oh
my heart is burning
my heart is burning day an night
my heart is burning
oho oho oh
my heart is still burning through all these years
through all these tears
keep my dreams in a papercup, hold on to my faith
when the world moves on, what will be?
will the broken hearted ones somehow find their way?
i can't tell you what they did to me
oho oho oh
my heart is burning
my heart is burning day an night
my heart is burning
oho oho oh
my heart is still burning through all these years
through all these tears
