Burn

Honestly I feel like
I really could die
All this pain man is keepin me
Wantin to cry
'Cause all I know is everything
That we been tryin
I feel it killin us and, baby
We slowly been dying
Every time that
We cross every line
Claiming we love each
Other but we lie
Real love don't keep you
Feelin so deprived
Should be the feelin
That keeps you alive
But, girl, we done promised
Ourselves many times
That we gonna stop
But we don't even try
And God is so good
He forgives every time
And I wanna be more than a night
More than a night

Been lost for a while
And I wanna come home
The places I've been got me
Feelin alone
Every part of my heart
Wanting me to let go
But it's hard to say no

I know it's hard to see it now
Blinded by the tears you've cried
When everything has turn to flames
The ashes rain inside
But know that underneath it all
There's hope beyond
The years of hurt
So you can leave it all behind
And watch it burn, burn, burn
Let it burn, burn, burn
Watch it burn, burn, burn
Burn, burn, burn

It's been too many years
She don't know what to do with
Her time when she home
Mama's been workin so hard
Tryna make up for the fact that daddy is gone
She think I don't hear all the cryin
That she doin in bed all alone
But these walls are thin
Like the ice that
I just keep on skatin on
Hold up, hold up
Mama, I know that you feel it's your fault
Nothin you did could've made
Someone stay when they
Wanted to leave deep inside of their heart
All you can do is forgive him
Try to envision
You movin on past the pain and the prison
That you've been stuck in
About to erupt in
I know there's a
Better life you could be livin

I know it's hard to see it now
Blinded by the tears you've cried
When everything has turn to flames
The ashes rain inside
But know that underneath it all
There's hope beyond the years of hurt
So you can leave it all behind
And watch it burn, burn, burn

You're more than what
You see in the mirror
The reflection only
Shows where you've been
Don't you know the
Story's far from over
A chapter ends
Another has to begin
So grow your wings
And begin to fly
And write your dreams
All across the sky
Let the past be the
Wind that carries you higher
We in the clouds
Sing it with me now

I know it's hard to see it now
Blinded by the tears you've cried
When everything has turn to flames
The ashes rain inside
But know that underneath it all
There's hope beyond the years of hurt
So you can leave it all behind
And watch it burn, burn, burn
Let it burn, burn, burn
Watch it burn, burn, burn
Burn, burn, burn
