Then It Burns Lyrics

Light a match, casting light upon the ground

Look at everything you've built & found

Playing with your walls of sound

Look at the crowd gathering around

Kid, you got something special

And a somewhat healthy mental

Your work was a vessel

But you let the rise get to you

Truly was an exciting time

Labels and deals aligned

But you lived too much in fantasy

To actually make them a reality

You let your pride consume you

Talking about yourself with no follow-through

You're too distracted to notice that you dropped the match

Now the crowd's running away as you're left all alone to-

Watch the fire you created burn it down

Everything you worked for, it's all gone

Light the bridge with kerosene

And then it burns all to the ground

I'm watching your fire run wild over something you cared for

And now I'm wondering how you could possibly hurt more

(Cause)

You seem so empty with the mourning of all of your work

Even though you're the one who burned it, you hurt yourself

Now you're stuck and now you'll just-

Watch the fire you created burn it down

Everything you worked for, it's all gone

Light the bridge with kerosene

And then it burns all to the ground

You did this all to yourself (Then it burns down)

You did this all to yourself (I watched it burn down)

And now you're watching it burn
