"Burn" lyrics
"Burn"
If it's the last damn thing I do
I'm gonna burn this body down
I never really got over you
I just learned to do without
At the crossroads of my life
You're the line that runs between
The man in the mirror now
And the boy he used to be
Baby, out of that clear blue sky
I watched you trade today for tomorrow
And I held my tongue, stood up strong
Paid for my sorrow
And every long lost dream, every memory
Down to a lesson learned
Tears like gas, falling fast
Strike that match and watch me burn
Burn, burn, burn, burn, burn
If it's the last time I speak your name
Let it only be in truth
That day that you walked away
Was the last day of my youth
And baby, out of that clear blue sky
I watched you trade today for tomorrow
And I held my tongue, stood up strong
Paid for my sorrow
And every long lost dream, every memory
Down to a lesson learned
Tears like gas, falling fast
Strike that match and watch me burn
Burn, burn, burn, burn, burn
