Let It Burn |
Did you see the rays of light? |
Light turning black to white |
Or did you keep your eyes still closed, looking your own way? |
Did you hear the tolling bell when heavens turned to hell? |
Or did you keep your ears closed living your own day? |
Did you scent the smell of flame? |
Or did it smell the same |
With the scent of your daydreaming, sweet illusions guile? |
Did you taste the taste of hope that turned to hangman’s rope? |
Or did you keep your lips still closed in a foolish smile? |
And I tried to scream and cry — you wouldn’t listen, not listen |
And I tried to wonder why — I got no reason, no reason |
And I tried to understand it was not season, my season |
So I’ve torn out burning heart to see it freezing… |
Oh, let it burn, let it burn! |
Burn for ages |
Oh let it turn, let it turn, turn to ashes |
Now, when it’s gone — no return, nothing matters |
Oh, let it burn, let it burn while the world is turning on |
Did you cry when world crashed down? |
Or were you not around? |
With the feelings locked in prison, in your own cell |
Did you care, just ever care? |
Or you just stood and stared |
Hiding from your own reflection, from your own self |
The world is turning and so my heart is burning |
So, tell me should I try? |
Forever strangers, oh will I understand you |
With all your reasons why? |
Did you ever cry when I cried, when I cried? |
Did you ever stay by me side, by my side? |
Did you ever feel what I felt when it died? |
Did you ever care? |
Did you dare? |
Or you lied? |
Just being on the other side… |
