To burn it to the ground
You told me yes,
You held me high
And I believed when you
Told that lie
I played soldier,
You played king
And struck me down
When I kissed that ring
You lost that right
To hold that crown
I built you up but
You let me down
So when you fall,
I’ll take my turn
And fan the flames
As your blazes burn

When you fall,
I’ll take my turn
And fan the flames
As your blazes burn
We can’t wait
To burn it to the ground
When you fall,
I’ll take my turn
And fan the flames
As your blazes burn
We can’t wait
To burn it to the ground
