Burn

Lyrics

[Verse 1] Boldly, I embraced your favor And thought you'd fight shadow with light I pictured you some kind of savior Entranced by the words of your might [Pre-Chorus] But as you move onward I'm seeing you on my own (Oh, oh) And quickly I ponder If you will reap what you sow Will you [Chorus] Burn? I hope you burn Just long enough so you live what I've learned Trust me, the pain is still less than you've earned Fade into ashes to never return Flame Met by the flame Watch as the fire erases your name I hope, when life flashes back, you're ashamed I'd burn it all down just to keep you away [Verse 2] My righteous blood boils in my carcass Conflicted in all of your lies Were always your visions so heartless? So selfish your want terrifies [Pre-Chorus] But as you move onward I'm seeing you on my own (Oh, oh) And quickly I ponder If you will reap what you sow Will you [Chorus] Burn? I hope you burn Just long enough so you live what I've learned Trust me, the pain is still less than you've earned Fade into ashes to never return Flame Met by the flame Watch as the fire erases your name I hope, when life flashes back, you're ashamed I'd burn it all down just to keep you away [Instrumental Break] [Bridge] The light that once I thought compassion Still casting shadows in your action The words you shared were cold transactions That bring me to curse what you've done When you're up there, absorbed in greatness With such success you've grown complacent I hope you scorch your many faces When you fly too close to the sun [Chorus] Burn I hope you burn Just long enough so you live what I've learned Trust me, the pain is still less than you've earned Fade into ashes to never return Flame Met by the flame Watch as the fire erases your name I hope, when life flashes back, you're ashamed I'd burn it all down just to keep you away [Outro] I hope you, I hope you, I hope you, I hope you burn Burn, burn, burn Burn, burn, burn I hope it hurts when you burn
