Light Me Up and Let It Burn
Cowboy in a Suit
Strike that match, don’t hesitate,
I’ve been waitin’ on that flame
Got a past I never buried…
Got a soul that don’t behave
Smoke curls up like a warning,
But I ain’t never been the kind
To walk away from fire…
When it’s already mine
You can see it in my shadow,
Dancin’ on the wall
I don’t fight the burn…
I let it take it all
Light me up and let it burn…
I ain’t here to be saved
Every lesson I learned…
Came from choices I made
No clean hands, no return,
No mercy left to earn
If I’m goin’ down tonight…
Light me up and let it burn
Boot heels tap to the rhythm,
Of a life I never tamed
Every scar’s got a story…
Every story got a name
You can judge if you want to,
You can call it a sin
But I built what I stand on…
From the mess I been in
I don’t ask for forgiveness,
I don’t beg for a sign
If it’s fire that I’m facin’…
Then that fire’s mine
Light me up and let it burn…
I ain’t runnin’ away
Every bridge that I crossed…
Went up in flames anyway
No regrets, no concern,
No lessons left to learn
If it ends right here tonight…
Light me up and let it burn
I tried livin’ clean…
Didn’t suit me well
Some men chase heaven…
I got used to hell
Light me up and let it burn…
Let it take what it will
I been walkin’ this line…
And I’m walkin’ it still
No way back, no return,
Just a page I never turn
If I’m goin’ out this way…
Light me up and let it burn
Yeah…
Let it burn.

Strike that match, don’t hesitate, I’ve been waitin’ on that flame Got a past I never buried… Got a soul that don’t behave
Smoke curls up like a warning, But I ain’t never been the kind To walk away from fire… When it’s already mine
You can see it in my shadow, Dancin’ on the wall I don’t fight the burn…
I let it take it all
Light me up and let it burn… I ain’t here to be saved Every lesson I learned… Came from choices I made
No clean hands, no return, No mercy left to earn If I’m goin’ down tonight…
Light me up and let it burn
Boot heels tap to the rhythm, Of a life I never tamed Every scar’s got a story… Every story got a name
You can judge if you want to, You can call it a sin But I built what I stand on… From the mess I been in
I don’t ask for forgiveness, I don’t beg for a sign If it’s fire that I’m facin’…
Then that fire’s mine
Light me up and let it burn… I ain’t runnin’ away Every bridge that I crossed… Went up in flames anyway

Light me up and let it burn… Let it take what it will I been walkin’ this line… And I’m walkin’ it still
No way back, no return, Just a page I never turn If I’m goin’ out this way…
Light me up and let it burn
Yeah…
Let it burn.
