I need a light to guide me out
Or make a fire to
clean this mess
I'll use my map for kindling
An d the scientists
and the horoscopes
They can give me all,
they can't help me now
If you lie for me,
I will cover you in the
After life, if I see you there
Just you wait, till love finds out
What we've done
Let it burn, let it burn,
let all the dead things burn
Start anew, start anew,
let ashes feed you
Need to feel, I can change myself I can start again,
though this may not work
I will take my chances anyway
The fire escape and the holy grail
Are both just as far from
where I stand
Gravity will guide me now
It will lead me where I need to go
Let it burn, let it burn.
Let all the dead things burn.
Start anew, start anew.
Let ashes free.
I need you now to wash my hands,
to clear my name.
I light this fire to purge
my past from memory
And the hopes I hide get a second
chance in another life
They will breathe again
In the universe
It has followed me
It's lit tiny fires
Let it burn, let it burn,
let all the dead things burn
Let it burn, let it burn,
let all the dead things burn
Start anew, start anew,
let ashes free you
Let it burn, let it burn,
let all the dead things burn
Start anew, start anew,
