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 [x2]
