Burning Down by Leona Lewis Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Burning me down, I don't know how
I'm over my head, I'm over my head
It's a mistake, you should have stayed
I'm over the edge, over the edge
And you're standing looking down at the flames
Do you like watching me cry, over again?
[Chorus]
You set a fire when you left, see the ashes all around
Feel your smoke in my lungs and I choke without a sound
Oh going down, fall, going down
You set a fire when you left and I'm burning to the ground
Burning down, burning down
[Verse 2]
Turn into dust, blowing away
Everything I ever meant to you, disappears
You're not even here
You got a ghost, it's not letting go
There's no place for me to run
You took it all
Are you proud of what you've done, watching me crawl?
[Chorus]
You set a fire when you left, see the ashes all around
Feel your smoke in my lungs and I choke without a sound
Oh going down, fall, going down
You set a fire when you left and I'm burning to the ground
Burning down, burning down
[Bridge]
So piece by piece, you fade, you leave
Give up, and strike of lies and watch it burn me
[Chorus x2]
You set a fire when you left, see the ashes all around
Feel your smoke in my lungs and I choke without a sound
Oh going down, fall, going down
You set a fire when you left and I'm burning to the ground
Burning down, burning down
Burning me down, I don't know how
I'm over my head, I'm over my head
It's a mistake, you should have stayed
I'm over the edge, over the edge
And you're standing looking down at the flames
Do you like watching me cry, over again?
[Chorus]
You set a fire when you left, see the ashes all around
Feel your smoke in my lungs and I choke without a sound
Oh going down, fall, going down
You set a fire when you left and I'm burning to the ground
Burning down, burning down
[Verse 2]
Turn into dust, blowing away
Everything I ever meant to you, disappears
You're not even here
You got a ghost, it's not letting go
There's no place for me to run
You took it all
Are you proud of what you've done, watching me crawl?
[Chorus]
You set a fire when you left, see the ashes all around
Feel your smoke in my lungs and I choke without a sound
Oh going down, fall, going down
You set a fire when you left and I'm burning to the ground
Burning down, burning down
[Bridge]
So piece by piece, you fade, you leave
Give up, and strike of lies and watch it burn me
[Chorus x2]
You set a fire when you left, see the ashes all around
Feel your smoke in my lungs and I choke without a sound
Oh going down, fall, going down
You set a fire when you left and I'm burning to the ground
Burning down, burning down
