Houses of the Holy

I was burned in the heat of the moment,
No, it could've been the heat of the day.
When I learned how my time had been wasted,
Dear fellows I turned away.
Now I've got friends who will give me the shoulder,
When I should happen to fall.
The timing is right, now I'm older.
I've got friends who will give in before I fall.

Corner of bleaker and nowhere noway,
In the land of not quite day.
