Burn Lyrics

[Verse 1]
I watch as my world's going up in flames
Through the black smoke, I can see your face
Embers, they rain as the walls come down
Where do we go when the lights go out?

[Chorus]
I gave you my blood, my sweat, my tears
And all you ever did was leave me here
Set me on fire 'cause you love the hurt
Set me on fire just to watch me on my knees
My heart, it bleeds
While you pour gasoline all over me
Set me on fire 'cause you lovе the hurt
Set me on firе just to watch me
Burn, burn

[Verse 2]
What would you do if you lost control?
How would you feel if your dreams were sold?
With both your hands tied and your taped-up mouth
You finally feel how I'm feeling now

[Chorus]
I gave you my blood, my sweat, my tears
And all you ever did was leave me here
Set me on fire 'cause you love the hurt
Set me on fire just to watch me on my knees
My heart, it bleeds
While you pour gasoline all over me
Set me on fire 'cause you love the hurt
Set me on fire just to watch me
Burn, burn

How to Format Lyrics:

  • 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 [?]
