What do your scars mean to you? Watch it burn asks the listener to step into the present, finally finding the empowerment that can come from digging deep and releasing yourself from the shackles of past wounds.
Go back inside
Where the flames are licking
Change your stripes
Change your stars
But the clock is ticking
You’re paralyzed but don’t think twice
If you want to gain control
Drag it out
Or let it take you whole
Relight the fire within
Hold a match to the world
Shed your skin
Watch it burn
Go back in time
Fight for your life
I know you feel it
Reach for the knife
Follow the red line
Reopen the wound
And dig for the bullet
Made up your mind
To fly through the window
Watch your life from a cloud
While northeast winds blow
Blood sacrifice
But where else can find
What you’ve left behind
Relight the fire within
Hold a match to the world
Shed your skin
Watch it burn!
Go back in time
Fight for your life
I know you feel it
Reach for the knife
Follow the red line
Reopen the wound
And dig for the bullet
This house is on fire
Your heart is on fire
It’s down to the wire
Go back in time
Fight for your life
I know you feel it
Reach for the knife
Follow the red line
Reopen the wound
And dig for the bullet
Follow the red line
Follow the red line
Follow the red line
And dig for the bullet
