Burning Down

I guess you never know, someone you think you know

Can't see the knife when you're too close, too close

It scars forever when someone you called your friend

Shows you the truth can be so cold, so cold

I'd wipe the dirt off your name with the shirt off my back

I thought that you'd do the same, but you didn't do that (you)

Said I'm the one who's wanted for all the fires you started

You knew the house was burning down, I had to get out

You led your saints and sinners, and fed 'em lies for dinner

You knew the house was burning down, and look at you now

Ooh, ooh

And look at you now

How do you sleep at night? No one to hide behind

Betrayed every alibi you had, you had, you had

Every chance to make amends instead you got drunk on bitterness

And you still claim that you're innocent, it's sad that you

Said I'm the one who's wanted for all the fires you started

You knew the house was burning down, I had to get out

You led your saints and sinners, and fed 'em lies for dinner

You knew the house was burning down (and look at you now)

Used to tell me you'd pray for me

You were praying for my downfall

You were digging a grave for me

We were sharing the same four walls

Used to tell me you'd pray for me

You were praying for my downfall

You were digging a grave for me

We were sharing the same four walls, and you

Said I'm the one who's wanted for all the fires you started

You knew the house was burning down, I had to get out

You led your saints and sinners, and fed 'em lies for dinner

You knew the house was burning down

Used to tell me you'd pray for me (pray for me)

You were praying for my downfall (for my downfall)

You were digging a grave for me (for me)

We were sharing the same four walls

Used to tell me you'd pray for me

You were praying for my downfall

You were digging a grave for me

We were sharing the same four walls, and you
