I'm burning down my house One brick at a time Burning it down to rubble Hopefully I'll be done in time I don't want to live here anymore I want it to all be gone I want to sit underneath it Then me too I'll be gone Far from anything under some hot coals gone from the world under my burnt up life it can't come soon enough not for me in any kind of eventuality, I'll be free I wish I didn't have to I quite like everything here But I'm not allowed to keep it I can't be allowed to keep my fears So Away my house Away my soul Gone on the wind my feelings This world will not allow control
