Up In Flames
I don't wanna say what I got on my mind'Cause nothing tonight wants to come out on timeThe truth is I'd rather sit out and unwindLet somebody else tell their story this time
I wonder what happened to give me the rightTo step on a platform and pick up a micAnd tell you the way to be living your life'Cause all my credentials were lies
You've had your say, now take your seatI know my place, you don't know me
I'll probably end up in flames before the end of the nightWatch me burn in the fire, watch me bid you goodbyeYour words fall right off the page like they fall on deaf earsYou know that it's over, nothing left for you here(Nothing left for you here)
I waited too long, letting people like you tell me what they wantAnd what I shouldn't doSo mark me with words, but you can't tie my handsThere's nothing I'll say to make you understand
I know who I am, I know where I'll end up:In flames & that's fine 'cause I'm finally fed upStick with what I started, don't care how it hurtsThe loudest get shot, at the worst
You've had your say, now take your seatI know my place, you don't know me
I'll probably end up in flames before the end of the nightWatch me burn in the fire, watch me bid you goodbyeYour words fall right off the page like they fall on deaf earsYou know that it's over, nothing left for you here(Nothing left for you here)
You know I'll never fold like you're the authorityI won't throw my hands up like you're the authorityYou know I'll never fold like you're the authorityI won't throw my hands up like you're the authority
I'll probably end up in flames before the end of the nightWatch me burn in the fire, watch me bid you goodbyeYour words fall right off the page like they fall on deaf earsYou know that it's over, nothing left for you here
I'll probably end up in flames before the end of the nightWatch me burn in the fire, watch me bid you goodbyeYour words fall right off the page like they fall on deaf earsYou know that it's over, nothing left for you here(Nothing left for you here)
