Burn Lyrics by Nettle Hill

Set Fire to a Perfect Story

2021

[Verse 1]
Well someone told me
Back when I was younger
Never see the rain fall
'Till you felt the thunder
There's no denyin'
There's no mistakin'
An easy smile
From a hand that's shakin'

[Pre-Chorus]
When the time's right
You'll see the light
Comin' down the road ahead of you
Like a hard rain through blue skies
Let the scales fall from your eyes
Let a little light come on through

[Chorus]
No need to hide
Stay under the covers
One piecе falling
After the others
My oh my oh my
Somе people never learn
Out of the pan
And into the fire
Throw what's left upon the roarin' pyre
Why oh why oh why do you let it
Burn

[Verse 2]
Cleopatra, Cain and Abel
There's only so much
Sweep under the table
I think that you've heard
I think you'll know (I think you'll know)
That what you're reaping
Is what you've sown

[Chorus]
No need to hide
Stay under the covers
One piece fallin'
After the others
My oh my oh my
Some people never learn
Out of the pan
And into fire
Throw the rest upon the roarin' pyre
Why oh why oh why do you let it
Burn

[Pre-Chorus]
When the time's right
You'll see the light
Coming down the road ahead of you
Like a hard rain through blue skies
Let the scales fall from your eyes
Let a little light come on through

[Chorus]
No need to hide
Stay under the covers
One piece fallin'
After the others
My oh my oh my
Some people never learn
Out of the pan
And into the fire
Throw the rest upon the roarin' pyre
Why oh why oh do you let it
