Burning It Down

Lyrics

Woke up today and found myself Thinking about the same preoccupation game I'm always playing Thinking ifIwas someone else Icould find a way to turnmy mind off and escape the walls I've built Tried to remind myself it's all just an illusion And the truth is no one's losing and nobody really wins And if I find a way to let go of this self-reflexive echo I could quit this grim fixation on my sins Open your eyes and look around Open your ears and hear the sound All that we've lost will soon be found We're burning it down Burning it down I dream of oceans blue and wide Where we can sail away and leave it all behind in classic fashion No one to blame us but the tide Nothing to be blamed for anyway No reasons we should hide So I'm gathering my own rotten kindling And I'm gonna make myself a beautiful bonfire Feel free to join me if you're angry or you're lonely Or just sick of fearing falling off the wire Open your eyes and look around Open your ears and hear the sound All that we've lost will soon be found We're burning it down Burning it down [Instrumental Break] Open your eyes and look around Open your ears and hear the sound All that we've lost will soon be found We're burning it down Burning it down Uncover your ears Don't fear the sound We're burning it down Burning it down
