Burn

Honestly I feel like

I really could die

All this pain man is keepin me

Wantin to cry

'Cause all I know is everything

That we been tryin

I feel it killin us and, baby

We slowly been dying

Every time that

We cross every line

Claiming we love each

Other but we lie

Real love don't keep you

Feelin so deprived

Should be the feelin

That keeps you alive

But, girl, we done promised

Ourselves many times

That we gonna stop

But we don't even try

And God is so good

He forgives every time

And I wanna be more than a night

More than a night

Been lost for a while

And I wanna come home

The places I've been got me

Feelin alone

Every part of my heart

Wanting me to let go

But it's hard to say no

I know it's hard to see it now

Blinded by the tears you've cried

When everything has turn to flames

The ashes rain inside

But know that underneath it all

There's hope beyond

The years of hurt

So you can leave it all behind

And watch it burn, burn, burn

Let it burn, burn, burn

Watch it burn, burn, burn

Burn, burn, burn

It's been too many years

She don't know what to do with

Her time when she home

Mama's been workin so hard

Tryna make up for the fact that daddy is gone

She think I don't hear all the cryin

That she doin in bed all alone

But these walls are thin

Like the ice that

I just keep on skatin on

Hold up, hold up

Mama, I know that you feel it's your fault

Nothin you did could've made

Someone stay when they

Wanted to leave deep inside of their heart

All you can do is forgive him

Try to envision

You movin on past the pain and the prison

That you've been stuck in

About to erupt in

I know there's a

Better life you could be livin

I know it's hard to see it now

Blinded by the tears you've cried

When everything has turn to flames

The ashes rain inside

But know that underneath it all

There's hope beyond the years of hurt

So you can leave it all behind

And watch it burn, burn, burn

You're more than what

You see in the mirror

The reflection only

Shows where you've been

Don't you know the

Story's far from over

A chapter ends

Another has to begin

So grow your wings

And begin to fly

And write your dreams

All across the sky

Let the past be the

Wind that carries you higher

We in the clouds

Sing it with me now

I know it's hard to see it now

Blinded by the tears you've cried

When everything has turn to flames

The ashes rain inside

But know that underneath it all

There's hope beyond the years of hurt

So you can leave it all behind

And watch it burn, burn, burn

Let it burn, burn, burn

Watch it burn, burn, burn

Burn, burn, burn
