Burn It Out

Lyrics
[Verse 1] You know the secrets that live in fire What is the promise that flames inspire? Can you just burn it out? Shadows and memories that won't stay put Can you redact them with ash and soot? Can you just burn it out? [Chorus] Can you just burn it out? So thoroughly You’ll never see A trace of yourself in the spark Can you just burn it out? 'Til it's dark [Verse 2] Ghostly intruders who storm the moat Black-booted looters lay knife to throat Can you just burn that out? All of the shame that was yours to bear Will it ignite like a signal flare Can you just burn it out? [Chorus] Can you just burn it out? So thoroughly You’ll never see A person who once had a name Can you just burn it out? With a flame [Bridge] Spirits and specters that live in the sulphur streams Find their redemption in charcoal dreams [Chorus] Can you just burn it out? So thoroughly You'll never see A trace of yourself in the coal Can you just burn it out? Of your soul
