Burn me, burn me, burn me to ashes
Don’t extinguish me
Burn me, burn me, burn me to ashes
Till you can’t distinguish me
Set me on fire, don’t pull the alarm
I want to be cremated in your arms
I’ll never be the man I want to be
I screw things up at every turn
They say that home is where the heart is
Well my heart’s disintegrated and I’m trapped inside this urn
So burn me, burn me, burn me to ashes
Don’t extinguish me
Burn me, burn me, burn me to ashes
Till you can’t distinguish me
Set me on fire, don’t pull the alarm
I want to be cremated in your arms
I’ll never love the girl I want to love
I’ve got nothing to separate
Me from anyone else that’s on this earth
So I just want to engulf myself in flames
So burn me, burn me, burn me to ashes
Don’t extinguish me
Burn me, burn me, burn me to ashes
Till you can’t distinguish me
Set me on fire, don’t pull the alarm
I want to be cremated in your arms
I want to know what it feels like to survive
Something for once in my life
I want to know what pain really feels like
I need it to be external and not just in my mind
So burn me, burn me, burn me to ashes
Don’t extinguish me
Burn me, burn me, burn me to ashes
Till you can’t distinguish me
Set me on fire, don’t pull the alarm
I want to be cremated in your arms
