Lyrics Brett Dennen

Brett Dennen

Walk Away, Watch Me Burn

Woke up early this mornin'

To a thunder and rainstorm

Last night I forgot to close

My windows

My home's been broken

And my heart has been blown wide open

I don't wanna feel angry

I don't wanna feel empty

I don't want no sympathy

Who am I to blame?

What can I say? I'll never learn

Going down in flames

Walk away, watch me burn

Walk away, watch me burn

I was thinking 'bout my place in the universe

Looking at the Earth's curve

How much my little heart can hurt

Some people got a lot of nerve

I'm not afraid

No, I never been afraid of failure

I'm not afraid of global warmin'

Or the market crashin'

Or the terrorists attackin'

Who am I to blame?

What can I say? I will never learn

I'm goin' down in flames

Walk away, watch me burn

Walk away, watch me burn

I swam in the ocean in the night

Under the stars it's so clear

My pale body bouncin' in the waves

I felt I could disappear, I'm still here, yes, I am

Who am I to blame?

What can I say? I will never learn

I'm goin' down in flames

Walk away, watch me burn

Walk away, watch me burn

Walk away, watch me burn
