I didn’t say a word It’s only destiny I heard The time had come for me to run away “Don’t even turn around” is what they say
I couldn’t say a word It’s only dignity I heard But once I go, there is no coming back Throw away all that I one time had I’ll burn it down Gonna burn it down Gonna burn it down
Had me tied up and I couldn’t breathe I cut the rope and then I broke free Whatever was left I threw it down into the dirt And kicked the dust until my damned eyes hurt
I’ll burn it down Gonna burn it down Gonna burn it down I couldn’t say a word It’s just a mystery I heard Maybe I’ll miss it on some lonely day And maybe think about what I might say
I’ll burn it down Gonna burn it down Gonna burn it down I’ll burn it down Gonna burn it down Gonna burn it down
