I need big dreams
In city streets and bright lights
'Cause this seems to make me feel alright
And I want this one
And I can take
And I can feel myself
On the brink about to break
And I'll be lost
And alone
And I'm scared to fall on my own
I need hope or control
But something's pulling me in
[Chorus:]
It needs to hurt, so we could work
And I need fire, so I can burn
And I need love, so I can learn
I'm just a boy with the world at my feet you'll find a girl
Telling me to not get hurt
Telling me but I won't learn
'Cause I want you and nothing can stop this
So let's sit and watch this burn
And as it ends up in ashes
We sit and laugh, yeah
We sit and watch this burn
I need your heart and both hands and my plans
Are to make you feel alright
But you want it all in good time
And I get that you've been hurt before
And I'll be lost and alone
And I'm scared to fall on my own
[Chorus]
When the world gets quiet
I'll scream your name
And when your lungs get tired
The air will breath the same
Don't forget me, let me ease your pain
Your heavy heart is breaking
Don't let it slip away
It needs to hurt, so we could work
And I need fire, so I can burn
And I need love, so I can learn
Burn, 'cause I want you and nothing can stop this
So let's sit and watch this burn
And as it ends up in ashes
We sit and laugh, yeah
We sit and watch this burn
