Let It Burn


here i am, the scattered seed
stranded by the side of the road
suffocated, choked to death
left here for the crows

is this fire to refine
or what is waiting for me on the other side

it creeps up onto me
smoke fills my lungs
and i can hardly breathe
but all i want

is to let it burn, let it burn
let it burn me away
let it burn, let it burn
let it burn me away

dust to ashes to the ground
six feet later gone to meet my Maker
can you make me any less
than the princess in my mind

it creeps up onto me
smoke fills my lungs
and i can hardly breathe
but all i want

is to let it burn, let it burn
let it burn me away
let it burn, let it burn
let it burn me away

oh, is this fire to refine
or what is waiting on the other side

it creeps up onto me
smoke fills my lungs
and i can hardly breathe
but all i want

is to let it burn, let it burn
let it burn me away
let it burn, let it burn
let it burn me away
