"Burn It" lyrics

"Burn It"

I'm walking up the [?]
And it's telling me you're hiding, you're hiding, you're hiding
I'm begging you to stay the same
The only constant is your changing, your changing, your changing

And it lights up well
I bring you down to hell
The street it has my name
I'll burn it to the ground, the ground, the ground, the ground
This town, this town, this town
Burn it to the ground
Oh

And when you walked out on me
I asked the bridges where you're going, you're going, you're going
I'm begging you to stay the same
The only constant is your changing, your changing, your changing

And it lights up well
I bring you down to hell
The street it has my name
I'll burn it to the ground, the ground, the ground, the ground
This town, this town, this town
Burn it to the ground
Oh

And it lights up well
I bring you down to hell
The street it has my name
I'll burn it to the ground, the ground, the ground, the ground
This town, this town, this town
Burn it to the ground

"It's about the rage you feel when you notice something you love change and become unrecognizable… in this case, it's NYC, but it could be a metaphor for anything. Relationships don't always end, sometimes they just change, and this song is about dealing with that," the band said about the song.
