His love was seeking shelter,
I gave it a home.
Til it invaded my system like
a disease deep in my bones

The feel of his touch on my skin,
A craving I wont deny
Overlooked his red flags
Causing pain I can't justify

So I Let it burn
Yeah, Burned his love to the ground
Took it down
down
down
Til only ashes could be found
I was made of fire, he was cut from wood
Lit a match N’walked away for good
Yeah…i let it burn
Mmm mmm I let it burn

The way he weaved between
lies and truth, a needle pulling thread
Left me tied up in knots of
excitement mixed with dread

Like a drug I couldn't quit
Always chasing my next fix
I had to sober myself up
From the taste of his lips

So I Let it burn
Yeah, Burned his love to the ground
Took it down
down
down
Til only ashes could be found
I was made of fire, he was cut from wood
Lit a match N’walked away for good
Yeah…i let it burn
Mmm mmm i let it burn

He cut a path across my life
as wide as the mighty mississipp
In order to save my own heart
I had to sacrifice his

So I Let it burn
Yeah, Burned his love to the ground
Took it down
down
down
Til only ashes could be found
I was made of fire, he was cut from wood
Lit a match N’walked away for good
Yeah…i let it burn
Mmm mmm i let it burn

Mmm mmm

Yeah
I was made of fire, he was cut from wood
Lit a match N’walked away for good
Yeah…i let it burn
Mmm mmm i let it burn
