In the back of your mind it crawls Sucking all of your life through tiny straws, you dig? Hoping all of what bends will break Hoping all that you give is more than it will take Let it burn, let it burn Let it burn, let it burn It'll tear your core to shreds It'll tear your core to shreds ♪ It is taking your will to think Oh, it is taking your choice to stand real tall and speak up It'll lift you so high, you'll soar Flying high enough you can't see the ground no more Let it burn, let it burn Let it burn, let it burn It'll tear your core to shreds It'll tear your core to shreds ♪ Tryin' to break this barricade Oh, but the giant who holds them up won't go away So brick by brick it falls With a barricade who needs shiny walls, so go Let it burn, let it burn Let it burn, let it burn It'll tear you core to shreds It'll tear your core to shreds It'll tear, it will tear It will tear, it will tear
