Burn It Down

Choke on the smoke from the fire
Eating away at your lungs
This is the result of what you've done
And it's only just begun

You forced me to
(Burn it down)
All that you've done has led me to
(Burn it down)
We built up this bridge but you forced me to
(Burn it down)
Your words were the match that I needed to
(Burn it down)
All that we had has now been burned

I do not regret my choice to break away from you and free myself
You never gave a shit about me until you needed my help
And now this weight that has left my shoulders
Free of this load on my back
I should've done this a long time ago
Now that I have I know I won't be turning back

All the love we had has been left in the fire
Lost and never to return
This is the weight of your actions
And you have to live with the burns
I'm turning my back on you like I always fucking meant to do
I'm stronger than I once was and this time I had to see it through
Disappointment is all that you've given me
Wasted my time but now I'm finally fucking free

I cut you off, out of my life
You were the cancer that ate at my soul
Now I've moved on, left you behind
I'm no longer under your control
You made your home in the fire when you hung me out to dry
I saw it then just as you see it now
The face of the man that had left me here to die

But I won't go so easy into the cold dark night
My fire burns stronger in darkness and it's your turn to bathe in the light

(Burn it down)
You just pushed me until I had to
(Burn it down)
Was it worth all of this?
(Burn it down)
You can't burden me anymore
(Burn it down)
I burned all of it down
