Burn Songtext
von The Flatliners
Burn Songtext
What is left to squeeze out from the stone
When all of the blood is gone from me?
Only a vestige of what was of necessity
Out from under exhaustion
I clear my throat to speak
In line for your attention
Break the bricks under them, one by one
They light the flame and then they run
Burn
Don′t let it burn away
Burn
What's lost cannot be saved
What was meant to breathe
Will suffocate from all the born and bred legacies
The privilege wrapped tight ′round the neck of the right to be
A stone unturned, a daughter
So innocent and free
Instead of treading trauma
Smash the silence that surrounds us all
And leave the fire standing tall
Stand over the flame until embers remain
Stand over the flame until ashes remain
Slowly scatter what is left to be
Bury your tarnished disbelief
When all of the blood is gone from me?
Only a vestige of what was of necessity
Out from under exhaustion
I clear my throat to speak
In line for your attention
Break the bricks under them, one by one
They light the flame and then they run
Burn
Don′t let it burn away
Burn
What's lost cannot be saved
What was meant to breathe
Will suffocate from all the born and bred legacies
The privilege wrapped tight ′round the neck of the right to be
A stone unturned, a daughter
So innocent and free
Instead of treading trauma
Smash the silence that surrounds us all
And leave the fire standing tall
Stand over the flame until embers remain
Stand over the flame until ashes remain
Slowly scatter what is left to be
Bury your tarnished disbelief
