Burn It Down to Rise

Verse

Match in my pocket, ash on the floor

Kick drum lights the fuse at the door

Four on the floor and my ribs on fire

Strike it, watch it climb higher

Pre-Chorus

Count it down from ten to none

Whatever I was, it's already gone

Hands up high where the smoke turns blue

I let it go, I let it through

Chorus

Burn it down to rise

Burn it down to rise

Ash on the floor, fire in my eyes

Burn it down to rise

Nothing left to hide

Burn it down to rise

Verse

Sirens fade under the low end hum

Skin remembers what the bassline becomes

Sparks off the rafters, sweat off the wall

I was standing, now I'm free-fall

Pre-Chorus

Count it down from ten to none

Whatever I was, it's already gone

Hands up high where the smoke turns blue

I let it go, I let it through

Chorus

Burn it down to rise

Burn it down to rise

Ash on the floor, fire in my eyes

Burn it down to rise

Nothing left to hide

Burn it down to rise

Bridge

No going back through the door I came

Every old version dissolves in the flame

Feel it catch in the middle of my chest

Let the fire finish the rest

Chorus

Burn it down to rise

Burn it down to rise

Ash on the floor, fire in my eyes

Burn it down to rise

Nothing left to hide

Burn it down to rise
