Burn It Down

Yet another story about pain turned into glory
It wears you out
Seeing it on the faces of people losing faith
Yeah, they fear and doubt

On and on, the same old song
You sing the words but they're all wrong
Broken by the promises no one ever told you they were all lies
Keeps you from flying

Whoa, oh, oh, oh
Whoa, oh, oh, oh
You're gonna burn it down
You're gonna burn it down
Whoa, oh, oh, oh
Whoa, oh, oh, oh
You're gonna burn it down
You're gonna burn it down

Problem with the truth is it bruises all the egos of simple minds
Closer to the ending and fear you want the answers and pay the price

On and on, the same old song
You sing the words but they're all wrong
The world a final test
When they push you from the nest and they leave you out
No more flying

Whoa, oh, oh, oh
Whoa, oh, oh, oh
You're gonna burn it down
You're gonna burn it down
Whoa, oh, oh, oh
Whoa, oh, oh, oh
You're gonna burn it down
You're gonna burn it down

Your day will come and you'll be flying
Your day will come and you'll be flying

When you finally hear the truth and there's nothing you can do
It just passed you by
One day you'll open up when you spill it from your cup
It will leave you dry
Now you're flying

Whoa, oh, oh, oh
Whoa, oh, oh, oh
You're gonna burn it down
You're gonna burn it down
Whoa, oh, oh, oh
Whoa, oh, oh, oh
You're gonna burn it down
You're gonna burn it down

Ooh oh oh
Ooh oh oh
You're gonna burn it down
Ooh oh oh
Ooh oh oh
You're gonna burn it down
