lyrics
The Burning Past
intro:
oooh,
The fire burns slowly,
watch it falter,
oooh,
The fire brings out,
the burning past,
oooh,
They stand on the throne,
and watch the world turn
---
Verse1-
Ohh!
Let's stay at home
and watch the flames
burn
slowly
and fall in love
with dreams we'll never know
Ohh!
They shout out blame
Did they call your number?
Say no
---
Chorus 1
The fire!
Breaks our wild bones
Their eyes don't mean a thing to you
feel the heat inside
rise!!!
--
Verse2-
Ohh!
You crave the truth
but their throat's are clenched tight
from!
the hands
they've scorned
Deep in their minds
Ohh! oh! when the beep grows quiet
float their bins of ashes
in the sea
---
Chorus 1
The fire!
Breaks our wild bones
Their eyes don't mean a thing to you
feel the heat inside!
----
outro-
Oooh...
Let's stand on the throne
and watch their world fall
or
We can stay at home
and die alone...
