I see you shake that box of matches
Restlessly smoke your cigarette
I hear you close the locks and latches
There are some thing still to be said
The moon wanders by and by
But time moves slowly I know too slow for you
Maybe you know that I have realized
That it's all a show to you
As it seems disaster is the only way for you
As you see the chances slip away you blew
Burn, burn it to the ground and
Leave it all behind
Throw that burden to the ground
Strike a match and burn
Burn it to the ground and
Leave it all behind
Throw that burden to the ground
Strike a match and burn
I know you'll turn and face the sound of
The marvelous burst of shiny sparks
Cover the scars and by and by will
Fate disappear and leave no mark
As it seems disaster is the only way for you
As you see the chances slip away you blew
Burn, burn it to the ground and
Leave it all behind
Throw that burden to the ground
Strike a match and burn
Burn it to the ground and
Leave it all behind
Throw that burden to the ground
Strike a match and burn
Burn, burn it to the ground and
Leave it all behind
Throw that burden to the ground
Strike a match and burn
Burn it to the ground and
Leave it all behind
Throw that burden to the ground
Strike a match and burn
Burn, burn it to the ground and
Leave it all behind
Throw that burden to the ground
Strike a match and burn
Burn it to the ground and
Leave it all behind
Throw that burden to the ground
Strike a match and burn
