Lyrics
You can take everything away from me
everything I want take it away from me
burn down the house, burn down everything
Then fly away on angel wings you bought downtown
In the big box store of broken dreams
we danced in the darkness to your fairy tales
I cried when you threw my albums in the garbage pail
I tried to make our love worthwhile
you just saw me as a reckless child , a reckless child
burn down the house, burn down everything
then fly away on angels wings you bought for the scene
like your magazines from your big box store of broken dreams
I wanted to follow you across every star
We didn’t get that far, only you have wings
Here on the ground I can smell the Autumn earth
So strong and proud until the winter shuts it down
How could you be that cold
Burn down the house
burn down everything
then fly away on angels wings you bought online
It happens every time, every time love tries to find you
All it ever finds
Is the house we built for all our broken dreams
