Burn It Down

She lit a cigarette and told me were through*

A steady hand tapped dashes to the floor

She held herself together just to watch me come unglued

Set fire to everything I've ever felt before

The bitter taste of heartache still makes me wanna

choke

Cause' I remember watching all those years go up in

smoke

So burn it down, burn it down now

Cause' I can't walk away

I need to see what's left go up in flames

So burn it down, burn it down now

Until there's nothing left to say

Cause' I don't have the nerve to let it die out

So I'll burn it all down

Waking up alone will come easier in time

But this empty bed won't ever feel the same

I try to hold myself to keep you off my mind

I'd try anything, everything, to keep my head from

playing games

Cause' I remember watching all those years go up in

smoke

So burn it down, burn it down now

Cause' I can't walk away

I need to see what's left go up in flames

So burn it down, burn it down now

Until there's nothing left to say

Cause' I don't have the nerve to let it die out

So I'll burn it all down

So burn it down, burn it down now

Cause' I can't walk away

I need to see what's left go up in flames

So burn it down, burn it down now

Until there's nothing left to say

Cause' I don't have the nerve to let it die out

Oh, I don't have the nerve to let it die out

So I'll burn it all down
