letra de let 'em burn - emily scott robinson

[verse 1]
white picket fence, a quiet street
faithful wife of fifteen years, mother of three
i go to church, i say my prayers
but i have never felt the breath of god in there
i followed every rule and played it safe
and i built myself a beautiful cage
the coffee’s hot, the kids asleep
this is the only time i feel like i can breathe
but late last night i locked the door
and cried myself to sleep on the bathroom floor
’cause i lit a match and held it to my yearning
and found out i was a house already burning

[chorus]
i’m on the edge of something wild
on the edge of something free
on the edge of something reckless
i get down on my knees
if you don’t recognise me when i come back around
it’s ’cause all the things i thought i’d be
i let ’em all burn to the ground
i let ’em burn, i let ’em burn

[verse 2]
i never dreamed i’d start this war
when i was young i was so innocent and sure
i was afraid to be alone
so i wrote every vow with loyalty in stone
is this the life i want for my own daughter?
just trying to keep her head above the water
what if desire is a gift and not a sin?
what if this could be the start and not the end?
[chorus]
i’m on the edge of something wild
on the edge of something free
on the edge of something reckless
i get down on my knees
if you don’t recognise me when i come back around
it’s ’cause all the things i thought i’d be
yes all the things i swore i’d be
i let ’em all burn to the ground
i let ’em burn, i let ’em burn
i let ’em burn, burn, burn
