Paroles de Burn It Down
They've found me out!I have to leave, there's no time left to say goodbye.
Don't worry dear, I'll be back soon, no need to cry.
They've found me out!
And when I drove away and saw her in that dress,
I thought my heart would break as it pounded in my chest.
I headed for the hills and there I ditched the truck,
And searched the ridge hoping that I would be in luck.
I hope I make it out alive,
'Cause tonight might end my life.
I hope I make it out alive.
I burned the house to watch the flames.
And there I sat against the wall, twelve gauge in hand.
I had a scheme, I had a plot, I had a dream, I had a plan.
Then the lamp shattered, sending pieces to the floor.
I laid right still in wait, and there he entered through the door.
I heard the dogs and men, but still he had not spotted me.
How will I make it out? I sat and pondered, silently.
I questioned, reasoned, doubted answers in my mind.
And who would die that night in the Appalachian pines?
He saw me crouching there and shot.
I felt the heat and saw the bullet streak, white-hot.
But then I heard another shot! I burned this house to watch the flames,
And I would do it all again,
I burned this house to watch the flames,
Just to watch the flames!
And searched the ridge hoping that I would be in luck.
I hope I make it out alive,
'Cause tonight might end my life.
I hope I make it out alive.
I burned the house to watch the flames.
And there I sat against the wall, twelve gauge in hand.
I had a scheme, I had a plot, I had a dream, I had a plan.
Then the lamp shattered, sending pieces to the floor.
I laid right still in wait, and there he entered through the door.
I heard the dogs and men, but still he had not spotted me.
How will I make it out? I sat and pondered, silently.
I questioned, reasoned, doubted answers in my mind.
And who would die that night in the Appalachian pines?
He saw me crouching there and shot.
I felt the heat and saw the bullet streak, white-hot.
But then I heard another shot! I burned this house to watch the flames,
And I would do it all again,
I burned this house to watch the flames,
Just to watch the flames!
