Burn It Down Songtext
von Ampersandre

I′ve been buried by too big of a mountain
I keep on digging, I keep on crawling
Cuz I found purpose for the things that I'm doing
Even when you pile it up high
And when you feel I′m getting too close
You cut off the top and spread it out farther
And when I take everything that you've got
It's time to wake up, it′s time to start over

Burn, Burn it down
(It′s amazing how hard that you push back
It's like you know just what you′re saying)
Burn, It Burns you down
(I can't believe that you′d really think like that
Just to backtrack and say you're only kidding)

I am the voice when you are wrong
Stuck inside your head, and I′m not silent now
As your temple crumbles down


I've been awakened by your lack of compassion
You tore your alter down, to make a liar's crown
You pawn your virtue like an unused possession
You bleed the coffers out dry
The louder I get the more that you choke back
Unrecognizable to who you may be
You kick and you scream when it doesn′t quite go right
That feeling inside is the death of a dream

Burn, you want to burn it down
(Light the match if you think it makes it brighter
Only shows how you burnt your finger)
Burn, it burns you down
(Can′t accept that this pain won't lesson
Adding more layers just adds more pressure.)

I am the voice of when you′re wrong
Stuck inside your head, and I'm not silent now
As your temple crumbles down

You give me plenty to talk about
You can′t escape the words that you must hear
How can you live with your selfish delusion?
Lock yourself in as you suffer again with me

Yeah
You try to drown me in your constant distortions
But I'm like a virus, cuz I am your conscience
Your testimony sparks pointless deception
I am always inside, it′s just a matter of ...


Burn, Burn you down
(It's amazing how hard that you push back
It's like you know just what you′re saying)
Burn, You inside out
(I can′t believe that you'd really think like that
Just to backtrack and say you′re only kidding
Light the match if you think it makes it brighter
Only shows how you burnt your finger
Too scared to listen to the words that can save you
But I can't leave to watch this continue
Can′t accept that the pain won't lesson
Think that′s frustration, then look at me)

I am the voice of when you're wrong
Stuck inside your head, and I'm not silent now
I have grown, into a mountain now
Like a volcano, you cannot keep me down
As I burn you inside out

Burn you inside out
Yeah, yeah, oh
