Bonfire Songtext
von Mark McKinney

One, two, three, four

Well, I can try to tell you where we went wrong
I′m sure that it would make a great country song
But I wouldn't want to have to rehash it, every time I sang along
Well, I′ve been drinkin' every night, to numb my pain
Some would say it a hundred proof could fuel a flame
You strike a match, and your thoughts will ignite
It's the way you dumped me, well, it′s just like rot

I′m gonna light a bonfire, burn it to the ground
Stack it high with bad memories, and all the things that let you down
You gotta light a bonfire, burn it to the ground
Let 'em go, all those broken dreams
And the nightmare′ll be hell-bound, alright


Lord, you know I loved you, but I still got burned
You never see it comin', that′s a lesson I learned
It could blind-side you so damn quick
Hits you like a ton of bricks
Like, I finally figured out you just let it go
Like ashes in the wind, you just let 'em blow
You touch those mem′ries, you know what I mean
Think of your lighter, and some mental gasoline

You gotta light a bonfire, burn it to the ground
Stack it high, with bad memories, then all the things that let you down
You gotta light a bonfire, burn it to the ground
Let 'em go, all those broken dreams
And the nightmare'll be hell-bound, alright

Let fire in your mind, burn hot as the sun
Take a couple shots of whiskey, hell, just for fun
One more thing, yeah, I′m talking some trash
Before I touch your memory, well, kiss my ass

You gotta light a bonfire, burn it to the ground
Stack it high, with bad memories, then all the things that let you down
You gotta light a bonfire, burn it to the ground
Let ′em go, all those broken dreams
And the nightmare'll be hell-bound
One more

You gotta light a bonfire, burn it to the ground
Stack it high, with bad memories, now all the things that let you down
Alright, play me some guitar

Light a bonfire
