Watch It Burn

For years, you fed me only crumbsYou paid me only dustSaid I was too hard to love, woahFor years, I tried to rise aboveWas only light and loveBut now I'm, "Shut the fuck up," woahYou know I gave and I gaveNow I'm giving upThere's nothing more you can takeNo, I don't want to cause a sceneBut give me the gasolineTonight's the night, I light a matchThrow it hard behind my backGonna try to forgive and forgetLight a cigarette, and watch it burnWith the past, I'ma breathe in the ashGonna try to forgive and forgetLight a cigarette, and watch it burnThank you for showing me the painThis was not a mistakeThe mistakе would be to stay, ayyYou know I gave and I gaveNow I'm giving upThеre's nothing more you can takeNo, I don't want to cause a sceneBut give me the gasolineTonight's the night, I light a matchThrow it hard behind my backGonna try to forgive and forgetLight a cigarette, and watch it burnWith the past, I'ma breathe in the ashGonna try to forgive and forgetLight a cigarette, and watch it burnI'm gonna get what I deserveI'm sorry, I know that it hurtsFinally I put myself firstAnd watch it burnI'm gonna get what I deserveI'm sorry, I know that it hurtsFinally I put myself firstAnd watch it burn
