Song Lyrics

Well I never thought I'd arrive at a place so far from you
But I know I'll never survive
With all the things that you've been put through
But I never thought you would turn
Or that I would turn away
All you wanted was to love me
But I guess that I just got in the way

Now my arms are empty in a place you used to be
I know you will never forgive me
But could you do one last thing for me?

Let me stay in your eyes awhile
Let me rest
Watch myself bleed
If all that has brought me to you
Take the match and kerosene
Burn it all down
And burn it all down
Burn it all down
Burn it all down
Take me down with you
And burn it all down

Well I could see a ways around you
And I could see dust on your face
As much as I want to forget you
You're the one thing my heart can't erase

Let me stay in your eyes awhile
Let me rest
Watch myself bleed
If all that has brought me to you
Take the match to the kerosene
Burn it all down
And burn it all down
Burn it all down
Burn it all down
Take me down with you
And burn it all down

Burn it all down
Burn it all down
Burn it all down
Take me down with you
And burn it all down
