Burn Away
Maybe my emotions got the best of me
Maybe the attraction made it so I can't see
Maybe I'm jumping in way too rapidly
Or maybe its the real thing
Maybe now I am no longer alone
Maybe you can be the place that my heart calls its home
Maybe here is where I am not lost but I am known
And you'll end the war in these bones
Now all I want
Is just a drink of water
To quench the fire
Left burning by my father
I pour my soul out
Onto this broken altar
And hope it all just burns away
And now you call me your family
A thing that I've never known or felt or even seen
Or ever hoped Id have even in all my wildest dreams
Now you say it belongs to me
Now all I want
Is just a drink of water
To quench the fire
Left burning by my father
I pour my soul out
Onto this broken altar
And hope it all just burns away
The contradictions all stack up
Tightening the chains I thought already fell off
Tell me was it worth all it cost
To trade the world for the soul that you lost
Now all you want
Is just a drink of water
To quench the fire
Left burning by your father
So pour your soul out
Onto this broken altar
And hope it all just burns away
Just burns away yeah
Just burns away
Just burns away yeah
Just burn away
Maybe the attraction made it so I can't see
Maybe I'm jumping in way too rapidly
Or maybe its the real thing
Maybe now I am no longer alone
Maybe you can be the place that my heart calls its home
Maybe here is where I am not lost but I am known
And you'll end the war in these bones
Now all I want
Is just a drink of water
To quench the fire
Left burning by my father
I pour my soul out
Onto this broken altar
And hope it all just burns away
And now you call me your family
A thing that I've never known or felt or even seen
Or ever hoped Id have even in all my wildest dreams
Now you say it belongs to me
Now all I want
Is just a drink of water
To quench the fire
Left burning by my father
I pour my soul out
Onto this broken altar
And hope it all just burns away
The contradictions all stack up
Tightening the chains I thought already fell off
Tell me was it worth all it cost
To trade the world for the soul that you lost
Now all you want
Is just a drink of water
To quench the fire
Left burning by your father
So pour your soul out
Onto this broken altar
And hope it all just burns away
Just burns away yeah
Just burns away
Just burns away yeah
Just burn away
