[Verse 1]
I'll walk every inch of the earth
With tired eyes, but I won't fall asleep
No I won't fall asleep
I'll let go of my fears and I'll tear down walls that I've built
Just to stay awake
[Pre-Chorus]
To all the cold nights and all the long days
Let's flick a match and set it all ablaze
[Chorus]
I had to burn it down to build it up again
I had to pick up the pieces to put them back again
Cheers to the future and cheers to the past
I think I found my purpose here at last
We had to burn it down, we had to burn it down
Cheers to the future and cheers to the past
I think I found my purpose here at last
[Verse 2]
I'm never gonna stop
No I won't give this up
To the pain that we felt so long
We can soon wave it goodbye
We're gonna see the world
Through the eyes of our broken souls
We're gonna hear the words
To hard to speak
But we're all spoken for
[Pre-Chorus]
To all the cold nights and all the long days
Let's flick a match, set it all ablaze
[Chorus]
I had to burn it down to build it up again
I had to pick up the pieces to put them back again
Cheers to the future and cheers to the past
I think I found my purpose here at last
We had to burn it down, we had to burn it down
Cheers to the future and cheers to the past
I think I found my purpose here at last
[Outro]
I'm not leaving this earth with a hole in my heart
I'm not done with the world til' I fall apart
I'm not leaving
