Burn It Down
The cycle repeatedAs explosions broke in the skyAll that I neededWas the one thing I couldn’t find
And you were there at the turnWaiting to let me know
We’re building it upTo break it back downWe’re building this upTo burn it downWe can’t waitTo burn it to the ground
The colors conflictedAs the flames climbed into the cloudsI wanted to fix thisButCouldn’t stop from tearing it down
And you were there at the turnCaught in the burning glowAnd I was there at the turnWaiting to let you know
We’re building it upTo break it back downWe’re building this upTo burn it downWe can’t waitTo burn it to the ground
You told me yesYou held me highAnd I believed when you told that lieI played soldierYou played kingAnd struck me down when I kissed that ringYou lost that rightTo hold that crownI built you up but you let me downSo when you fallI’ll take my turnAnd fan the flames as your blazes burn
And you were there at the turnWaiting to let me know
We’re building it upTo break it back downWe’re building this upTo burn it downWe can’t waitTo burn it to the ground
When you fallI’ll take my turnAnd fan the flames as your blazes burnWe can’t waitTo burn it to the ground (x2)
