Lyrics
Let It Burn © 2004 by Neil Zimmerman. All Rights Reserved.
I saw an opportunity
To take what should belong to me
What was taken from me now will be my own
'Cause I need the sound of laughter in my home (to Ch)
(Ch) Let it burn, let it burn, like the fire in my heart
Let it burn, let it burn, let me finish what you'd start
Let it burn, let it burn, like the fire in my heart
Let it fill the empty place where she should be
Let the flame erase the pain inside of me
LET IT BURN
I made mistakes when I was young...
But, hey, I never hurt no one
Can't believe that life has been this cruel to me...
All I ever wanted was my family (to Ch)
I have loved her, I've been there...
You're an outsider waving a lock of her hair
The past doesn't matter, 'cause as she grows
You're taking her away from the family that she knows!
Now I get to be all by myself
While my whole family goes to hell
And you get to hear her laughter in your home
Why couldn't you leave well enough alone? (to Ch)
