My son came in to talk the other day
Say father, when will I be on my way
I dream of what I need
But what I need is to be heard
Say father what should I be in this world?
My son, You'll need to be the one You are
There's no one out there who knows
You'll start a war
We just need to burn
For what we are
Yeah, we just need to burn
To come this far
You'll get away with murderer
That's what You'll get
From loving her
My son came home to me the other day
Say father, how can I be what You say?
I tried so many times
And now I don't know what to do
Say father how can I be just like You
My son, You'll need to be the one You are
There's no one out there who knows but You
If You're a star
We just need to burn
For what we are
Yeah, we just need to burn
To come this far
You'll get away with murderer
That's what You'll get
From loving her
We just need to burn
For what we are
Yeah, we just need to burn
To come this far
You'll get away with murderer
That's what You'll get
From loving her
Yeah, dreams will never work if
You don't work
Yeah, dreams won't come alive if
You don't live
You get what you deserve and
You deserve all that You dream
But dreams will never work if
You don't work
We just need to burn
For what we are
Yeah, we just need to burn
To come this far
You'll get away with murderer
That's what You'll get
From loving her
We just need to burn
