Burned It Down Lyrics

Lay beside you, watch you sleep

I see the demons behind your eyes

They're the demons I unleashed

I watch them burning you alive

Wanna travel back in time

To when the garden was in bloom

Before the fruit was on the vine

Before the fullness of the moon

But there's no going back to hallowed ground

There's no going back to safe and sound

My memory will forever be a curse

I burned the garden down

I burned it down

So hand me the letter, this I'll wear

This mark that I deserve

And you the cross, you proudly bear

And all the beautiful scars you earned

You claim your place out in the sun

You're broken but redeemed

I pulled the thread, we came undone

There's no deliverance for the unclean

There's no going back to hallowed ground

There's no going back to safe and sound

My memory will forever be a curse

I burned the garden down

I burned it down

But I would have said yes

Don't you know I would have said yes
