Burn

The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.

I need big dreams in city streets and bright lights

'Cause this seems to make me feel alright

And I want this one and I can take

And I can feel myself from the brick about to break

And I be lost and alone

And I'm scared to find my own

I need hope or control but something's pulling me in

It needs to hurt so we could work

And I need fire, so I can burn

And I need love, so I can learn

I'm just a boy with the world

At my feet to find a girl

Telling me to not get hurt, telling me but I won't learn

'Cause I want you and nothing can stop this

So let's sit and watch this burn

And as it ends up in ashes, we sit and laugh, yeah

We sit and watch this burn

I need your heart in both hand in my plans

Are to make you feel alright

But you want it all in good time

And I get it that you've been hurt before, no

And I be lost and alone

And I'm scared to find my own

It needs to hurt so we could work

And I need fire, so I can burn

And I need love, so I can learn

I'm just a boy with the world

At my feet to find a girl

Telling me to not get hurt, telling me but I won't learn

'Cause I want you and nothing can stop this

So let's sit and watch this burn

And as it ends up in ashes, we sit and laugh, yeah

We sit and watch this burn

When the world gets quiet, I'll scream your name

When your lungs get tired, the air will breath the same

Don't forget me, let me ease your pain

And every heart in breaking, don't let it slip away

It needs to hurt so we could work

And I need fire, so I can burn

I need love, so I can learn

Burn, 'cause I want you and nothing can stop this

So let's sit and watch this burn

And as it ends up in ashes, we sit and laugh, yeah

We sit and watch this burn

And I won't learn

'Cause I want you and nothing can stop this

So let's sit and watch this burn

And as it ends up in ashes, we sit and laugh, yeah

We sit and watch this burn
