Burning Down

I guess you never know, someone you think you know
Can't see the knife when you're too close, too close
It scars forever when someone you called your friend
Shows you the truth can be so cold, so cold

I'd wipe the dirt off your name with the shirt off my back
I thought that you'd do the same, but you didn't do that (you)

Said I'm the one who's wanted for all the fires you started
You knew the house was burning down, I had to get out
You led your saints and sinners, and fed 'em lies for dinner
You knew the house was burning down, and look at you now

Ooh, ooh
And look at you now

How do you sleep at night? No one to hide behind
Betrayed every alibi you had, you had, you had
Every chance to make amends instead you got drunk on bitterness
And you still claim that you're innocent, it's sad that you

Said I'm the one who's wanted for all the fires you started
You knew the house was burning down, I had to get out
You led your saints and sinners, and fed 'em lies for dinner
You knew the house was burning down (and look at you now)

Used to tell me you'd pray for me
You were praying for my downfall
You were digging a grave for me
We were sharing the same four walls

Used to tell me you'd pray for me
You were praying for my downfall
You were digging a grave for me
We were sharing the same four walls, and you

Said I'm the one who's wanted for all the fires you started
You knew the house was burning down, I had to get out
You led your saints and sinners, and fed 'em lies for dinner
You knew the house was burning down

Used to tell me you'd pray for me (pray for me)
You were praying for my downfall (for my downfall)
You were digging a grave for me (for me)
We were sharing the same four walls

Used to tell me you'd pray for me
You were praying for my downfall
You were digging a grave for me
We were sharing the same four walls, and you
