Burn the City Down

You said you would burn the city down
You said you would do it for me
So I burned it to the ground
This city has burned before you see

All this rain won't stop it from burning
But at least it hides my streaming tears
I would never let you start a fire
You would let it spin out of control
Then blame her, the other one you desire
For eating out your soul

All this rain won't stop it from burning
But at least it hides her deepest fears
And all this rain won't stop her from yearning
But at least she can show how much she cares
All this rain won't stop it from burning
But at least it reveals your constant affairs
And all this rain won't stop me from learning
At last after seven too long years
