Burn It Down

I didn’t say a word

It’s only destiny I heard

The time had come for me to run away

“Don’t even turn around” is what they say

I couldn’t say a word

It’s only dignity I heard

But once I go, there is no coming back

Throw away all that I one time had

I’ll burn it down

Gonna burn it down

Gonna burn it down

Had me tied up and I couldn’t breathe

I cut the rope and then I broke free

Whatever was left I threw it down into the dirt

And kicked the dust until my damned eyes hurt

I’ll burn it down

Gonna burn it down

Gonna burn it down

I couldn’t say a word

It’s just a mystery I heard

Maybe I’ll miss it on some lonely day

And maybe think about what I might say

I’ll burn it down

Gonna burn it down

Gonna burn it down

I’ll burn it down

Gonna burn it down

Gonna burn it down
