Lyrics

Something's burning and I can't find the exit

I didn't sign up for this, didn't know the cost of getting

Closer to the thing I said I wanted to become

Turns out becoming means there's parts of you that come undone

I liked who I was, or at least I liked the comfort

Now the floor is getting hotter and I'm told that this is for my

Good — but good doesn't feel like this

Good feels like arrival, this feels like the abyss

Piece by piece the things I held are turning into vapor

Old habits, old escapes, the shortcuts and the paper

Thin identity I wore like it was me

But the heat has a way of showing what you really are beneath

I didn't ask for this

But I opened up the door

I said "make me new" and didn't know

What that was really for

Burn it down, burn it all the way

Every piece of me that's in the way

I can feel the fire and I hate it

But I'd rather be remade than stay the same

Burn it down to what remains

I don't want the version that's afraid

Even if it costs me everything I was

I wasn't finished anyway

Funny how the things you thought defined you are the first to go

The reputation, the reactions, the control

I held it tight like if I squeezed hard enough I'd keep it

But the heat don't negotiate and the flame's got no allegiance

To the man I built — only to the one beneath him

And I'm fighting it, I'll be honest, 'cause the burning means I'm bleeding

Out the poison that I called my personality

Every comfortable lie becoming a casualty

I look in the mirror and I barely recognize

The face, the frame, the way I carry both my eyes

Something's different, something's shifting in the structure

And the man I was is screaming but the man I'll be is tougher

I didn't ask for this

But I opened up the door

I said "make me new" and now I know

Exactly what that's for

Burn it down, burn it all the way

Every piece of me that's in the way

I can feel the fire and I hate it

But I'd rather be remade than stay the same

Burn it down to what remains

I don't want the version that's afraid

Even if it costs me everything I was

I wasn't finished anyway

The fire doesn't stop

Until the one who lit it

Sees Himself

When He looks in

So let it burn

Let it burn

I'm not who I was

And I'm not done

Full explosion, maximum energy

Burn it down, burn it all the way

Every piece of me that's in the way

I can feel the fire and I want it now

I'd rather be remade than stay the same

Burn it down to what remains

I don't want the version that's afraid

Even if it costs me everything I was

I wasn't finished anyway

I wasn't finished anyway
