Blue Oyster Cult – Burning For You lyrics
Home in the valley
Home in the city
Home isn't pretty
Ain't no home for me


Home in the darkness
Home on the highway
Home isn't my way
Home will never be

Burn out the day
Burn out the night
I can't see no reason to put up a fight
I'm living for giving the devil his due

And I'm burning, I'm burning, I'm burning for you
I'm burning, I'm burning, I'm burning for you


Time is the essence
Time is the season
Time ain't no reason
Got no time to slow

Time everlasting
Time to play B-sides
Time ain't on my side
Time I'll never know

Burn out the day
Burn out the night
I'm not the one to tell you what's wrong or what's right
I've seen suns that were freezing and lives that were through

Well I'm burning, I'm burning, I'm burning for you
I'm burning, I'm burning, I'm burning for you

Burn out the day
Burn out the night
I can't see no reason to put up a fight
I'm living for giving the devil his due

And I'm burning, I'm burning, I'm burning for you
I'm burning, I'm burning, I'm burning for you

    I'm my opinion it's about him, and how he sold his soul to the devil to be a famous musician. And singing about how, in retrospect, he is going to hell(burning) for you, and me and whoever likes and listens to the song, in other words his fans. Some people will say this is far fetched, but if that's the truth, how do you explain this lyric. "I'm living for vivid the devil his due" and the fact he has no home meaning(to me) he can never truly be happy because his life ends in hell
