I wish that I was you

I wish that you were dead

I wish I was alive

At least inside your head

I'll set fire to the past

Park across the street

And sit and watch it burn



I saw you on a train

The train was heading south

South of you and me

And me, I shut my mouth

The churches that we build



We burn - and burn and burn and burn

and burn again

We burn - and burn and burn and burn

and burn again



I wish the kid was grown

And walking on this earth

Looking just like you

And looking like myself

The bridges that we build



We burn - and burn and burn and burn

and burn again

We burn - and burn and burn and burn

and burn again



And burn and burn and burn

and burn again

And burn and burn and burn

and burn again



I wish that I was you

I wish that you were dead

I wish I was alive

At least inside your head

I'll set fire to the past

Park across the street

And sit and watch it burn



And burn and burn and burn

and burn again

We burn - and burn and burn and burn

and burn again

We burn - and burn and burn and burn

and burn again



And nothing you can do

Nothing you can say

Will ever change my mind
