Don't Watch as the World Burns
[Verse] What would you do If all you could know Is all I've been through And all that you've shown Is but hatred and pain But darling don't refrain [Verse 2] I've let you go to the end I'll watch as you leave me again I know I'm not enough But I know you aren't either Your life has been far too rough Please don't come light this fire [Chorus] I know I know how you are I know I know what you'd do Inside your body your soul will churn But I won't watch as the world burns I know I know your tendencies I won't I won't let you go free Close my eyes to the flame you yearn I won't watch as the world burns [Verse 3] You say you're sorry but you're too late Your choices have led you to this fate I don't want to watch you tear yourself Up inside Like a pouring rain crashing down Lost at sea am I bound to drown You know I know how you are [Chorus] I know I know how you are I know I know what you'd do Inside your body your soul will churn But I won't watch as the world burns I won't I won't let you go free Close my eyes to the flame you yearn I won't watch as the world burns [Verse 4] Stop it stop it just say anything I know you can't have me win No chance to stop your downward spin I can't hold you back from this From this again You've reached the farthest edge You're standing out on the ledge Don't let me be the reason For this untimely and unsightly death [Chorus] I know I know how you are I know I know what you'd do Inside your body your soul will churn But I won't watch as the world burns (I'm just trying to hold myself together) I know I know your tendencies I won't I won't let you go free Close my eyes to the flame you yearn I won't watch as the world burns [Chorus] I know I know how you are I know I know what you'd do Inside your body your soul will churn But I won't watch as the world burns (I'm just trying to hold myself together) I know I know your tendencies I won't I won't let you go free Close my eyes to the flame you yearn I won't watch as the world burns [Bridge] I'm just trying to hold myself together I'm just trying to hold myself together I'm just trying to tear you up inside I'm just trying to hold myself together [Chorus] I know I know how you are I know I know what you'd do Inside your body your soul will churn But I won't watch as the world burns (I'm just trying to hold myself together) I know I know your tendencies I won't I won't let you go free Close my eyes to the flame you yearn I won't watch as the world burns
