Let It Burn

Let It Burn
2006 VougeotMusic

V1: At the end of a lonely street
Stands the house of your memories
Windows broken, door hangs open
Paint is cracked and dry

Every leaf scattered on the ground
Every word meant to tear you down
One more possession, a dark collection
That keeps you trapped in time

Pre-: Hold on or move on
You can live inside the past forever, or

CHORUS: LET IT BURN
TURN YOUR TEARS TO ASHES
YESTERDAY'S SHADOWS
WILL FADE IN THE FLAMES
DON'T LET A WORLD
FULL OF SWEET DISASTERS
STAND IN YOUR WAY
ALL YOU HEARD, ALL YOU LEARNED
IF IT HURTS, LET IT BURN

V2: Up the stairs with the boards worn through
Feel the wind fill the empty rooms
Walls are leaning, paper peeling
Time for one last look

On the mantle, a picture frame
Familiar smile, eyes that seem to say,
"Days are passing, don't make the bad things
more precious than the good."

Pre-: Let the sparks fly and smoke rise
You've been carrying the weight forever, so
-CH-

Bridge: If it's yours but you don't want it
It can only drag you down
You're where you are, not where you've come from
That's all over now, so
