Fire Burns Lyrics

[Verse 1]
You shoulda left the other day
You let me beg for you to stay
This is a sickening joke that you play with my emotions
And so, I pray you burn in hell, and you never find the ocean

[Chorus]
I hope your fire, fire burns, baby
I hope your fire, fire burns, baby
I hope you lay down in your sleep, and you choke on every lie you told
And when you’re reaching out for me, you’ll see you reap everything you sow

[Verse 2]
You piece of shit, you broke me down
Thought you said you, would hold me down
But I could see it in your eyes that you're blinded by them flashing lights
And you's a stupid muthafucker for letting this thing pass you by

[Chorus]
I hope your fire, fire burns, baby
I hope your fire, fire burns, baby
I hope you lay down in your sleep, and you choke on every lie you told
And when you’re reaching out for me, you’ll see you reap everything you sow

[Outro]
(Burn, burn, burn...)

How to Format Lyrics:

  • Type out all lyrics, even repeating song parts like the chorus
  • Lyrics should be broken down into individual lines
  • Use section headers above different song parts like [Verse], [Chorus], etc.
  • Use italics (<i>lyric</i>) and bold (<b>lyric</b>) to distinguish between different vocalists in the same song part
  • If you don’t understand a lyric, use [?]
