Dylan Owen - Burn This Whole Place Down lyrics

This paper is my bible, this pen in my hand I used to pray for my survival now I'm sketching my plans And if it's safe to say my savior is this notebook I level my stance I'm sending twenty six letters with stamps I understand you've have a better fate, forget it, get it, go and get your center straight I'm getting straight with my demons, watch me demonstrate I've never been afraid of having fears I know this life can put a slug in you like Atmosphere But now I'm hiking home with a microphone trapped as a widower enlight my soul At night alone I would like to fight the fight's bite But it's bitter when I write my poems Born and raised awake poorly fade away snore the day away sorely lay awake Nights I know what a better way to betterment I better get a better fate or write my own This is the answer key don't let it tear apart drumbeat up meet up with me on an upbeat of my failing heart beat But never let them tell you not to carry on I've got one question all I need's an answer and I'm gone This song is my scripture it flows through my veins with every single note's fluctuation holding me my only escape I'm painting with my religion prophesized on a tape deck My explanation for how and why this makes sense Life goes by fast, break necks like we did as children change swept divorce came Names kept another new neighbor came and went, you can take my clothes but you will never break my bones I focus, write it off, of my self perception handle a little bit of pain if I can just channel it into my self expression Hate how we say goodbye, for the first time I had felt depression I'm gonna spill my heart out I'll go to hell confessing everything The sidewalk has cracks I learned that every one will tell a story like a raconteur So if you chase me, try to capture my pa**ion before it bursts You can start your own fire, you don't have to burn Burn this whole place down If I can start my own fire I won't have to burn Who says I can't take this whole place down?
