The Scorch Lyrics by Shelby Merry

2014

I wonder, I wonder what we'll do
Cause all we knew of yesterday is gone
The hot air scorching inside your lungs, they say
"You better run for the hills before they burn"
And i'm losing hope that we're gonna make it home
Deep breathes this is the starting line
They wanna see what we're made of
It was a rust belt of dust and ash
The cities stood like tombs of the world that had passed
Echoes of howls and gnashing teeth
Like rabid wolves in their packs
Deep breathes, this is the starting line
They wanna see what we're made of?
(Chorus)
Run for the hills before they burn
Run for the hills before they burn
Try to tell me that this isn't wrong-
(I hear the thunder roll in and the fire come down.)
Cause all I see are the things that you've done
So I say-
You wanna see what we're made of?
You wanna see what we're made of?
(Chorus)
Run for the hills before they burn
Run for the hills before they burn
You wanna see what we're made of?
You wanna see what we're made of?
