Burn Out Bright/Switchfoot

I want to burn out bright
Does it have to start with a broken heart
Broken dreams, bleeding heart
We were young and the world was clear
Young ambition disappears
I swore it would never come to this
The average, the obvious
How I'm still discontented down here
I'm still discontented
If we've only got one try
If we've only got one life
If time was never on our side
Then before I die I want to burn out bright
I want to burn out bright
So a spark ignites in time and space
Limping through this human race
You bite and claw your way back home
But you're running the wrong way
The future is a question mark
Of kerosene and electric sparks
There's still fire in you yet
Yeah there's still fire in you
If we've only got one try
If we've only got one life
If time was never on our side
Then before I die I want to burn out bright
I keep cleaning up the mess I've made
I keep cleaning up the mess I've made
I don't want to run away
I can't sleep in the bed I've made
I can't sleep in the bed I've made
If we've only got one try
We've only got one try
If we've only got one life
We've only got one life
If time was never on our side
Time was never on our side
Then before I die I want to burn out bright
Before I die I want to burn out
Before I die I want to burn out
Before I die I want to burn out bright
If time was never on our side
Then before I die I want to burn out bright

Me encanta esta cancion 💪🎸🎤

wait did this man sell his soul if you listen to some parts s it's like he's saying (if time was never on our side. so before I die I wanna burn out bright) side which it isn't when you sell your soul( I hear) other part says( I can't see you through the bet I've made) also ( hmm maybe not enough proof but I think more than the average

No, i think he is just Honest in how we are all human and have our problems, he likes to put out some music that has some real meaning and depth into how you live your live and what you are doing. He has a bunch of amazing God given qualities but he also has weaknesses like we all do, like falling into sin and how it separates us from God. I feel like he is saying even though there are times when i still have doubts, I wanna trust in you God and do my best to live for you, and Love others and be a witness and and example of the love that Jesus displays through us. If any Christian says they 100% follow God with everything, and knows everything they are lost. Everyone of us in some way or another is confused, worried, stressed, we all have our own weakness, but the main thing is trusting God has our lives planned, and we need to trust and do our best to work on our relationship with God and as well as others, Jon Foreman is not perfect, but I think he has an amazing ability from God to make music that really reaches out to people in their own ways. He has some amazing songs that are ovbiously crying out to God and saying he is broken in need of God, that hope is in God not what we do, and also has some awesome songs that just talk about life and what he is going through, or has gone through.

I just can't resist the temptation, I'll correct you about this two-year-old comment, don't mind me please. So the part of the song you quoted wrong goes like this: I can't sleep in the bed I've made

Who is listening to this now? (Jan 2017)

Here from Colombia 👋🏽 december 2018

I miss the In N' Out Burger on Encinitas Blvd.

Instead of "YOLO", people should heed this song instead.

+Isaac Lee So true. Sometimes people use YOLO as an excuse to do dumb stuff.

I agree, people often use YOLO to do things that will possibly kill them (or burn out), but instead of just burning out we should burn out bright.
