Burn It Down Lyrics by Alter Bridge

One Day Remains

2004

[Verse 1]
Drank so much last night, I think that I drowned
But now my cup is empty
No one has seen my will around
Now my heart is aching
Sometimes I fall asleep for days
But my bed is empty
I know I'm too set in my ways
Tell 'em all I'm okay

[Chorus]
So burn it down
Discover the dusk of your day has reached its dawn
So burn it down
Remember to find a new way to carry on

[Verse 2]
Flew so high last night, I think that I fell
To the ground so heavy
Woke up to find this living hell
It used to be so easy
Hard to tell my nights now from my days
The curtains hide my feelings
Don't feel I have any right to pray
And will they find me someday?
Oh, someday, oh

[Chorus]
So burn it down
Discover the dusk of your day has reached its dawn
So burn it down
Remember to find a new way to carry on
So burn it down
Discover the dusk of your day has reached its dawn, ooh
So burn it down
Remember to find a new way to carry on

[Bridge]
Whatever takes us away
Will be the same to drive us on, ooh
Whatever takes us away
Will be the same to drive us on
Remember to find a new way
A way to see it all
We're finally slipping away
And soon it will be gone
Remember to find a new day
Remember to carry on

[Chorus]
So burn it down
Discover the dusk of your day has reached its dawn
So burn it down
Remember to find a new way to carry on, oh
So burn it down
Discover the dusk of your day has reached its dawn
So burn it down
Remember to find a new way to carry on, oh
