Watching It Burn Songtext
von Borderline

You call me an actor, never say what I′m thinking
Always so dramatic when you say that you're leaving
You slam the door, don′t know what for
I'm a lot, but you're a lot, and that says a lot

Ooh, I′m wondering how you haven′t worked it out
You should know by now


I hate to admit it, but I'm down and out
Knew that we were walking on shaky ground
Built our house to watch it all burn down
I try to find balance while the world goes ′round
Keeping up appearances for someone else
Built our house to watch it all burn down

You call me a traitor for putting my heart out
Too easy to cut this like a razor paper
Is it the house, or where we placed it?
All I know now is I'm sleeping on the pavement

Ooh, I′m wondering how you haven't worked it out
You should know by now


I hate to admit it, but I′m down and out
Knew that we were walking on shaky ground
Built our house to watch it all burn down
I try to find balance while the world goes 'round
Keeping up appearances for someone else
Built our house to watch it all burn down
