Verse 1]
Old jacket on the back of the chair
Burned holes from every place I’ve been
Ashtray full of almosts and dares
Same four walls
Same old spin
I wanna burn it clean
Strike a match and feel it sting
Let the smoke take every scene
Till there’s nothing left of me but the scream
Burn it clean
Burn it clean
Phone screen cracked
Missed calls
Missed sleep
Coffee cold on the windowsill
Every promise that I swore I would keep
Stacked like bills I can’t pay
Still
I wanna burn it clean
Strike a match and feel it sting
Let the smoke take every scene
Till there’s nothing left of me but the scream
Burn it clean
Burn it clean
If I torch this town in my head (hey!)
Will I finally hear what I never said
Or just watch these ghosts turn red
And fade
And fade
I wanna burn it clean
Strike a match and feel it sting
Let the smoke take every scene
Till there’s nothing left of me but the scream
Burn it clean
Burn it clean (oh yeah)
