Dm C
The cycle repeated,
Am G
As explosions broke in the sky,
Dm C
All that I needed,
Am G
Was the one thing I couldn't find,
Dm Am
And you were there at the turn,
Am C G
Waiting to let me know,
Dm F
We're building it u - p,
C G
To break it back do - wn,
Dm F
We're building it u - p,
To burn it down,
C
We can't wait,
G C Dm
To burn it to the ground.
Dm C
The colors conflicted,
Am G
As the flames climbed into the clouds.
Dm C
I wanted to fix this,
Am G
But couldn't stop from tearing it down.
Dm Am
And you were there at the turn,
Am C G
Caught in the burning glow.
Dm Am
And I was there at the turn,
Am C G
Waiting to let you go

You told me yes,
You held me high,
And I believed,
When you told that lie.
I played solider,
You played king,
Struck me down,
When I kissed that ring.
You lost that right,
To hold that crown,
I built you up,
But you let me down.
So when you fall,
I'll take my turn,
And fan the flames,
As your blazes burn.
