Burn it Down Lyrics

Eyes open

Light streams in

Quietly

He leaves in

The same

Pants he came

On snowy steps

He walked back

With a child's grin

he slipped and he laughed

Lost in a trance

From one nights dance

He felt the match go off on first strike

But the flame just would not not grow

It seemed so bright on that first night

Oh what darkness can you make you believe

Burn em down, burn em all down

So there's no matches left for you

To burn right through

Driven by lust

Of lovers in escape

Searching for a pulse

A past they must erase

Moonshine in their veins

They numb their pain away

Eyes open

Light sneaks in

Feeling for his pulse

The warmth of his skin

But he'd already gone

And she'd already moved on

He felt the match go off on first strike

But the flame just would not not grow

It seemed so bright on that first night

Oh what darkness can you make you believe

Burn em down, burn em all down

So there's no matches left for you

To burn right through
