Burning It Down Songtext
von I Fight Dragons

Woke up today and found myself thinking ′bout the same preoccupation game I'm always playing
Thinking if I was someone else I could find a way to turn my mind off and escape the walls I′ve built
Try 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

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

Woah, woah
Uncover your ears, don′t fear the sound
We′re burning it down, burning it down
