Burn It to the Ground

In the light
You never thought that I could see you
What you are, what you chose to do
Can’t let it go

In the night
The fire burned so hot, I lost my sight
Who I was never left that night
But I’m coming home

I’ve been waiting far too long for you to see
When the world is gone and the lights on me

I can’t pretend to numb the pain
I’m reaching down
You set my heavy heart aflame
I’m screaming out
You never cared for me
You never said believe
No, I can’t pretend to numb the pain
I’ll make you proud
And burn it to the ground!

All my dreams have this tendency
All alone, as far as I can see
Just a taste of my serenity
It’s when I wake, I see the enemy

You’ll get no chance for a remedy
You think your words can sing a melody
Don’t pretend, hold your empathy
It’s all your hate that created me

The past never dies!

I can’t pretend to numb the pain
I’m reaching down
You set my heavy heart aflame
I’m screaming out
You never cared for me
You never said believe
No, I can’t pretend to numb the pain
I’ll make you proud
Proud!

Chosen not to be the one to save
I was given all the reason just to hate
I won’t wait, the day has come, you can’t escape
(You’re a filthy stain, you’re the one to) blame!

I can’t pretend to numb the pain
I’m reaching down
You set my heavy heart aflame
I’m screaming out
You never cared for me
You never said believe
No, I can’t pretend to numb the pain
I’ll make you proud
Burn it to the ground!

Burn it to the ground!
