[vs 1]
Woke up early this mornin'
To a Thunder and Rain storm;
Last night I forgot to close
My windows.
My heart has been broken
And my heart's been blown
Wide open.
I don't wanna feel angry.
I don't wanna feel empty.
I don't want no sympathy.
[Ch]
Who am I to blame?
What can I say?
I never learn.
Goin' down in flames!
Walk away,
Watch me burn.
Walk away,
Watch me burn.
[vs 2]
Was thinkin' 'bout my place in the universe.
Lookin' at the Earth's curve.
How much my little heart can get hurt.
Some people gotta lotta nerve.
I'm not afraid,
No, I never been afraid
Of failing.
I'm not afraid of global warming
Or the market crashin'
Or terrorists attacking.
[Ch]
Who am I to blame?
What can I say?
I never learn.
I'm goin' down in flames!
Walk away,
Watch me burn.
Walk away,
Watch me burn.
[Bridge]
I swam in the ocean,
In the night,
Under the stars so clear.
My pale body bouncin'
In the waves;
I felt I could disappear.
I'm still here.
Yes, I am.
[Ch]
Who am I to blame?
What can I say?
I never learn.
I'm goin' down in flames!
Walk away,
Watch me burn.
Walk away,
Watch me burn.
Walk away,
Watch me burn.
