Burn

Yah
Honestly I feel like I really could die (really could die)
This pain man is keeping me wanting to cry (wanting to cry, wanting to cry)
'Cause all I know is everything that we been trying (that we been trying)
Feel it killing 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 feeling so deprived
Should be the feeling that keeps you alive
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

It's alright
Been lost for a while
And I wanna come home (wanna come home, wanna come home)
The places I've been got me feeling alone (feeling alone, feeling alone)
Every part of my heart wanted me to let go (me to let go, 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 turned 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

Yah
It's been too many years
She don't know what to do with her time when she home
Mama's been working so hard
Tryna make up for the fact that daddy is gone (daddy is gone)
She think I don't hear all the crying
That she doing in the bed all alone (bed all alone)
But these walls are thin like the ice that
I just keep on skating on (just keep on skating on)
Hold up, hold up
Mama, I know that you feel it's your fault
Nothing 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 moving down past the pain in the prison
That you've been stuck in
About to erupt in
I know there's a better life you could be living

I know it's hard to see it now
Blinded by the tears you've cried
When everything has turned 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 (you're more than what you see in the mirror)
And write your dreams all across the sky (the reflection only shows where you've been)
Let the past be the wind that carries you higher (don't you know the story's far from over)
We in the clouds sing it with me now (a chapter ends, another has to begin)

(Oh-oh-oh)
Yeah all the shame baby let it burn (oh-oh-oh)
The hurt and pain you can let it burn (oh-oh-oh)
Lay down forgiveness you can let it burn (oh-oh-oh)
Forget the past, let it burn, let it burn

I know it's hard to see it now (I know it's hard to see it now)
Blinded by the tears you've cried (blinded by the tears you've cried)
When everything has turned to flames (turned to flames)
The ashes rain inside (when it rains, you know, you know, you know)
But know that underneath it all (yeah)
There's hope beyond the years of hurt (there's hope and you can find it now)
So you can leave it all behind (leave it all, all behind)
And watch it burn, burn, burn (gotta let it burn)

Just walk away and watch it burn (burn, burn burn)
Just walk away and watch it burn (burn, burn burn)
(Oh-oh-oh) Burn, burn, burn
'Cause know your story's far from over (watch it burn, burn, burn)
(It's far over now)
Just walk away and watch it burn (burn, burn burn)
(Watch it burn)
Just walk away and watch it burn (let it burn, burn burn)
(Watch it burn)
(Oh-oh-oh) Burn, burn, burn
'Cause know your story's far from over (burn)
