| I’ll leave it burning
|
| And I won’t be coming back again to this dismal town
|
| Filled with fair-weather friends
|
| This time (this time)
|
| I’ll break ties with the greatest of ease
|
| Expect the worst from me, I’ll come through like you wouldn’t believe
|
| We built this life, and now it’s ours (we built this life and now it’s ours)
|
| We’ll leave this town for dead (dead)
|
| Leave these streets and take with us our scars
|
| We built this life, and now it’s ours (we built this life and now it’s ours)
|
| We’ll leave this town for dead (dead)
|
| Leave these streets and take with us our scars
|
| I’ll leave it burning, and I won’t be coming back again
|
| Because this town toure me down and I had to built myself back up again
|
| Snow falls (snow falls) on the sight of your first kiss
|
| I’m running out of places to hide
|
| I always knew it would come to this
|
| We built this life, and now it’s ours (we built this life and now it’s ours)
|
| We’ll leave this town for dead (dead)
|
| Leave these streets and take with us our scars
|
| We built this life, and now it’s ours (we built this life and now it’s ours)
|
| We’ll leave this town for dead (dead)
|
| Leave these streets and take with us our scars
|
| Apologies to my friends and family for my songs ending up this way
|
| Each word, each line, just a fragment of whatever it is that I was trying to
|
| say (farewell)
|
| If you get one parting gift, it’s that I carry memories like a bag of bricks
|
| (farewell)
|
| And if you’ve seen the last of me, well then you’ve seen the very best of me
|
| I’ll leave it burning and I won’t come back |
