BURN YOUR MEMORY DOWN


VERSE

I REMEMBER THE NIGHT DRIVIN’ HOME FROM A MOVIE
WE PASSED A GAZEBO YOU SAID YOU ALWAYS WANTED ONE
BOUGHT ME A HANDSAW HAMMER AND NAILS
IT TOOK ME A WEEK I DIDN’T REST TILL THE JOB WAS DONE
WHOD’VE GUESSED IT’D BECOME A SHRINE
A MAUSOLEUM THAT YOU LEFT BEHIND

CHORUS

I POURED KEROSENE ON OUR HOPES AND DREAMS
LIT A MATCH SET MYSELF FREE
WATCHING IT GO UP IN FLAMES I LAUGHED AND CURSED YOUR NAME
BUT WHEN THE SMOKE CLEARED NOTHING HAD CHANGED
THE TRUTH LAY SMOLDERIN’ ON THE GROUND
I SHOULD’VE KNOWN I COULDN’T BURN YOUR MEMORY DOWN

VERSE

I RANSACKED THE HOUSE LIKE A MAN ON A MISSION
I DIDN’T STOP TILL THERE WAS NOTHIN’ TO REMEMBER
PICKED UP YOUR THINGS THREW ‘EM ALL ON THE FIRE
THE PILLOW YOU SLEPT ON BECAME A DYING EMBER
WHAT USED TO BE WHAT COULD’VE BEEN
ARE ASHES TO ASHES SCATTERED IN THE WIND

CHORUS

I POURED KEROSENE ON OUR HOPES AND DREAMS
LIT A MATCH SET MYSELF FREE
WATCHING IT GO UP IN FLAMES I LAUGHED AND CURSED YOUR NAME
BUT WHEN THE SMOKE CLEARED NOTHING HAD CHANGED
THE TRUTH LAY SMOLDERIN’ ON THE GROUND
I SHOULD’VE KNOWN I COULDN’T BURN YOUR MEMORY DOWN
