Burn It Down

1, 2, 3, 4

Don't say you love me
Words don't mean a thing
You show it with your actions
And the song that your soul sings

I know it's hard this day and age
To know what's real
And what's written on a page
Don't say you need me
Cuz you don't need a thing

Especially not the effigy
Of a man I used to be
I'll just burn it down again
Spread the ashes thin
Every story must come to an end
I'll just burn this one down again

I come in screamin' like the wind
A Nor'easter's comin' in
I just came here to wreck the place
And build it back up again

Every time I leave
I fear it might be the death of me
Oh, one day I won't make it back alive
And every time you cry
It cuts me a thousand times
Cuz I know I'm the man that let you down

But I'm not sorry
For my folly
It's been here long before you came around
I'm just searchin'
Out here for somethin'
To help me keep my feet here on the ground

Til I burn it down again
Spread the ashes thin
Every story must come to an end
Oh I'll burn this one down again
Again and again and again
