Watch Me Burn Songtext
von Silent Theory

All this venom that you speak
Condescending
No pretending
Vandalized the weak
Ask for seconds, no repenting
Blood in my eyes so I guess it′s okay

Burn the bridges let them smolder
Every lost sucker looking over their shoulder
For a little intuition In a lazy superstition Just to help this villian With a little exposure
There's mud in my veins Just to help me get by
So help me lie... lie, lie

Now I′m stuck here waiting
For the flames to burn me down
Its like plucking off the wings
Of a fly just to watch it drown
Now my hands are bound And my head keeps spinning
If I just keep calm maybe I'll keep grinning Now the haze is thick But it seems it's thinning
And I still can′t see the sun


When you kick the nest that holds the hornet
It stings the flesh a toxin born With no regret absorb the thorn
Preach the hate yet beg for more
Pay for the ways that you help decay
The shame I can blame but the price to pay Is a hefty one
A lonely one
A violent vigilante with a loaded gun
It was funny how back then it seemed so fake
You would think that a fool
Had a lot at stake
But times change and lies fade But I will never go away
Now I, don′t have time to help you get by
So help me lie lie lie

Now I'm stuck here waiting
For the flames to burn me down
Its like plucking off the wings
Of a fly just to watch it drown
Now my hands are bound And my head keeps spinning
If I just keep calm maybe I′ll keep grinning Now the haze is thick But it seems it's thinning
And I still can′t see the sun


Better pick it up quick
Better get it now
This severed chain that I can claim
What you could never find I've found
Now no one run
He′s got a gun
They're shooting kids they're having fun
They′re product placed, with a double face
They′ve changed the way we play the game
Theres an over saturation
Of a desperate situation
Should we emphasis exposure
Maybe place a limitation?
Maybe it's an epidemic
We′re deserving what we're gettin′
Are we destined for destruction
Or for reconciliation?

Now I'm stuck here waiting for
The flames to burn me down Its like plucking off the wings
Of a fly just to watch it drown
Now my hands are bound
And my head keeps spinning If I just keep calm
Maybe I′ll keep grinning
Now the haze is thick But it seems it's thinning
And I still can't see the sun
Now I′m stuck here waiting for
The flames to burn me down
It′s like plucking off the wings
Of a fly just to watch it drown
Now my hands are bound and my head keeps spinning
If I just keep calm maybe I'll keep grinning
And the haze is thick, but it seems it′s thinning
And I still can't see the sun
Still can′t see the sun
Still can't see the sun
Still can′t see the sun
