Burn It Down - Linkin Park (lyrics) The cycle repeated As explosions broke in the sky All that I needed Was the one thing I couldn\u0027t find And you were there at the turn Waiting to let me know We\u0027re building it up to break it back down We\u0027re building it up to burn it down We can\u0027t wait to burn it to the ground The colors conflicted As the flames climbed into the clouds I wanted to fix this But couldn\u0027t stop from tearing it down And you were there at the turn Caught in the burning glow And I was there at the turn Waiting to let you know We\u0027re building it up to break it back down We\u0027re building it up to burn it down We can\u0027t wait to burn it to the ground You told me yes, you held me high And I believed when you told that lie I played soldier, you played king And struck me down when I kissed that ring You lost that right to hold that crown I built you up but you let me down So when you fall, I\u0027ll take my turn And fan the flames as your blazes burn And you were there, at the turn Waiting to let me know We\u0027re building it up to break it back down We\u0027re building it up to burn it down We can\u0027t wait to burn it to the ground When you fall, I\u0027ll take my turn And fan the flames as your blazes burn We can\u0027t wait to burn it to the ground When you fall, I\u0027ll take my turn And fan the flames as your blazes burn We can\u0027t wait to burn it to the ground
