Burn It Down

On a dark street fogging up the windows in the
Backseat hot and heavy sinners share a heartbeat
With some much at stake
Well it was a Sweet line confession to the crickets at
midnight he didn't mean kiss me but he
realized a little too late get a little bit
Get a little higher so I can see the top of this fire I’m about ready just to
burn it down, burn it down I want to get a little
higher see the dark edge of desire I’m about ready just to
burn it down Burn it down
Burn it Burn it down
Burn it Burn it down
Burn it Burn it down
Burn it Burn it down It gets a little
Theirs a village of
haters who'd shout it out with the whispers
They gossip worst than a
the preacher who's lost the will to pray
When it gets Lonely thinking if only he’d
Call me Then maybe I could forget the
the whole thing lite a match Runaway
higher so I can see the top of this fire I’m about ready just to
burn one down, burn one down I want to get a little
higher see the dark edge of desire I’m about ready just to
burn one down burn one down
Burn it Burn it down
Burn it Burn it down
Burn it Burn it down
Burn it Burn it down It gets a little

8:45 in the morning
Southbound on 99
Car tires squeal without warning
Crushed metal shattered glass
Sirens scream
In the morning light
Life it changed
In a blink of an eye
Here I am
I'm one of those
People who knows
how fragile life can be
I survived i was lucky this time
Cause when you've seen the things that I have seen
You change your mind you start listening
This moment is the only one you know
When you see the end of the road like me
When you've seen the end of the road nothing will ever be
The same
Slow-motion doctors and nurses
Twirl around my hospital bed
The air fills with medical jargon
Swirling inside my head
AII I want is to go back to normal
Or was my normal just naive
Here I am
I'm one of those
People who knows
how fragile life can be
I survived i was lucky this time
Cause when you've seen the things that I have seen
You change your mind you start listening
This moment is the only one you know
When you see the end of the road like me
When you've seen the end of the road nothing will ever be
The same

Twenty-five years and my life is still
Trying to get that great big hill of hope For a destination
I realized quickly when I knew I should
That the world was made up of this brotherhood of man
For whatever that means
And so I cry sometimes
When I'm lying in bed Just to get it all out What's in my head
And I, I am feeling a little peculiar
And so I wake in the morning
And I step outside
And I take a deep breath and I get real high
And I scream from the top of my lungs What's going on?
Here's a little song I wrote
You might want to sing it note for note
Don't worry, be happy
In every life we have some trouble
But when you worry you make it double
Don't worry, be happy
Don't worry, be happy now
And I try, oh my god do I try
I try all the time, in this institution
And I pray, oh my god do I pray
I pray every single day
For a revolution.
And so I wake in the morning
And I step outside
And I take a deep breath and I get real high
And I scream from the top of my lungs
What's going on?
Ain't got no place to lay your head
Somebody came and took your bed Don't worry, be happy
The landlord say your rent is late He may have to litigate
Don't worry, be happy
But don't worry, be happy, be happy now

C
remember when
Am
We were young
F G
Champaign and cigarettes and laughter
C
Things were fun
Amin
So drunk so foolish just
F. Gsus4 // G//
There was a magic and we all felt it
Dmin
When midnight came
Esus4 //E//
We stormed the balcony
Amin. // C/G. // F
And smoked cheap cigarettes over the quiet streets
G//. G/F // C/E
I don't know what's coming over me
Dmin. Gsus4 //G//
All I know is I remember everything
C
There was a time
Amin
When I all I knew
F. G
Was how to shine and how to fool you
C
It makes me laugh
Amin
Cause they could care less
F. G
So young so fresh so innocent
Dmin. Esus4// E
Never mind the things we must do
Amin//. C/G//. F
No matter the world that we've lived through
G//. G/F // C/E. 2x Fsus2 2x
Now I don't know now what to do
C/E Fsus2.
What do I do now
C/E Fsus2/// G
Who am I now
C. Amin. F. G. C. Amin F. G. C
Cause I remember everything
