Sometimes you want to build it up to watch it come back down, 
                       G                  D                Em 
Sometimes you want to see the shattered pieces hit the ground, 
          G                     D                     Em D C 
When everybody keeps telling you to just live and learn,

                            Em                                          G 
Ive been wearing out the floors now, yeah just pacing down the hall, 
                            C                                          D 
Ive been jumping over shadows like theyll somehow make me fall 
                        Em                                    C 
Every pointless conversation they say be strong its alright 
                              G                                D 
Like strength is just a switch you flick then everythings alright 



 G                                            D 
Left a hole in the kitchen wall from when I slammed my fist last night, 
              G                                 D               D 
Trying to swallow down the feeling that Im losing every fight.

                                   Em           D               C 
Yeah maybe this time its a  warning, maybe this time its a cue, 
                             G                                  D 
Like a broken damaged body full of scars that we accrue. 
                                     Em                 D                            C 
Ive been dragged down by old traumas that still know my fucking name, 
                            G                                  D 
And maybe losing everything is how you finally kill the shame. 




C                                     D 
Stepped outside in bare feet just to feel the cold hard ground, 
                        C                          D 
Sometimes you need to suffer just a little before hope can come around.

               Em               D         C 
And maybe its reckless, maybe its wrong, 
          G                                                 D 
But Im tired of playing games while they keep moving the goalposts more and more. 
        Em                    D                    C 
If the whole damn world wants me to smile in return, 
D 
Just let it burn 
D 
Let it burn 
D 
Let it burn.
