Burn Lyrics

[Intro]
Burn
So burn

[Verse 1]
Can you find the place in your heart
Open up and let me in
I'm cold, hollow, and broken
Trying to rewind and restart
My patience is wearing thin
Attempting to speak the unspoken
So these shadows will tell
This story of mine
A tale of forgotten ties
And these mirrors reflect, at the start of our time
With mercy from blinded eyes

[Pre-Chorus]
But this fire will burn
This fire will burn

[Chorus]
Give me wings and let me go higher
Make me fly away and I'll never return
I will set your prison on fire
'Cause I just want to watch it burn
[Verse 2]
Tell me why you're holding me down
Any longer I will drown
I just want an end to this game
And these ghosts from my past
They shall perish at last
None of them will remain

[Pre-Chorus]
But this fire keeps burning
This fire keeps burning

[Chorus]
Give me wings and let me go higher
Make me fly away and I'll never return
I will set your prison on fire
'Cause I just want to watch it burn
Yeah I will set your prison on fire
'Cause I just want to watch it burn

[Bridge]
This time
I will let it don't you turn away
Lingering in the depths deep down inside of me
And now
You will hear me out don't look away
Tear it apart and shred it from inside of me
Just stop
Don't crave for this feeling
Nothing will change with these cards that you're dealing
No there's, no cure for this cancer
Nothing is true so don't push for an answer
(Anymore, anymore)
[Interlude]
I can not lose
I can not lose
But I won't let go
I won't let go

[Chorus]
Give me wings and let me go higher
Make me fly away and I'll never return
I will set your prison on fire
'Cause I just want to watch it burn
Give me wings and let me go higher
Make me fly away and I'll never return
I will set your prison on fire
'Cause I just want to watch it burn

[Outro]
This time
I will let it don't you turn away
Lingering in the depths deep down inside of me
And now
You will hear me out don't look away
Tear it apart and shred it from inside of me

How to Format Lyrics:

  • Type out all lyrics, even repeating song parts like the chorus
  • Lyrics should be broken down into individual lines
  • Use section headers above different song parts like [Verse], [Chorus], etc.
  • Use italics (<i>lyric</i>) and bold (<b>lyric</b>) to distinguish between different vocalists in the same song part
  • If you don’t understand a lyric, use [?]
