This i've wanted to do for a while now. Enjoy.


Let them burn, Let them burn

they are no longer my concern

Let them burn, Let them burn

Walk away into the night

The fire glows red in the distance tonight,

Not a person to be seen.

A kingdom of destruction and it looks like I'm the king.

The flame is roaring like this furnace inside.

Couldn't keep it in, Heaven knows I tried.

Don't let them in, don't let them see,

Be the good boy you always have to be.

Conceal, don't feel, don't let them learn.

Well, now they've learned.

Let them burn, Let them burn

Can't hold it back anymore

Let them burn, Let them burn

Walk away into the night

And here I stand and here I'll stay

Let them burn, Let them burn

The heat never bothered me anyway

It's funny how some distance makes everything seem small

And the fears that once controlled me set the sky alight.

Up here in the warm bold air I finally can breathe.

I know I left a life behind but I'm too relieved to grieve.

Let them burn, Let them burn

Can't hold it back anymore

Let them burn, Let them burn

Walk away into the night

And here I stand, and here I'll stay

Let them burn, Let them burn

The heat never bothered me anyway

Standing burning

With all I'm yearning.

You won't find me.

The futures in front of me

Burnt in the ground.

Let them burn, Let them burn

Can't hold it back anymore

Let them burn, Let them burn

Walk away into the night

And here I stand, and here I'll stay

Let them burn, Let them burn

The heat never bothered me anyway, yeah, whoa

(Na na, na na, na na na na) [4x]

Let them burn yeah

Na, na.

Here I stand.

Let them burn, Let them burn, oh

Let them burn.
