James McVey - Burn lyrics

[Verse 1] I need big dreams in city streets and bright lights Cause this seems to make me feel alright And I want this one and I can take And I can feel myself from the brick about to break [Pre-Chorus] And I be lost and alone And I'm scared to find my own I need hope or control but something's pulling me in [Chorus] It needs to hurt so we could work And I need fire, so I can burn And I need love, so I can learn I'm just a boy with the world At my feet to find a girl Telling me to not get hurt, telling me but I won't learn Cause I want you and nothing can stop this So let's sit and watch this burn And as it ends up in ashes, we sit and laugh, yeah We sit and watch this burn [Verse 2] I need your heart in both hand in my plans Are to make you feel alright But you want it all in good time And I get it that you've been hurt before, no [Pre-Chorus] And I be lost and alone And I'm scared to find my own [Chorus] It needs to hurt so we could work And I need fire, so I can burn And I need love, so I can learn I'm just a boy with the world At my feet to find a girl Telling me to not get hurt, telling me but I won't learn Cause I want you and nothing can stop this So let's sit and watch this burn And as it ends up in ashes, we sit and laugh, yeah We sit and watch this burn [Bridge] When the world gets quiet, I'll scream your name When your lungs get tired, the air will breath the same Don't forget me, let me ease your pain And every heart in breaking, don't let it slip away [Chorus] It needs to hurt so we could work And I need fire, so I can burn I need love, so I can learn Burn, cause I want you and nothing can stop this So let's sit and watch this burn And as it ends up in ashes, we sit and laugh, yeah We sit and watch this burn [Outro] And I won't learn Cause I want you and nothing can stop this So let's sit and watch this burn And as it ends up in ashes, we sit and laugh, yeah We sit and watch this burn
