Burning Down Letra

The whole god almighty world was burning down

Well I used to have money but now I'm broke
And there's nothing so queer as the strangest folk
I seen Women and Children and Men in chains
All crying together in the burning flames

But I was told about forgiveness, one love the only truth
I am here to bear witness, I surrender unto you
I'm your long lost son - but I've found my way
And I hope it's not too late cos I feel the fiery flames

I'm burning down, burning down
I see no water but I fear I'll drown
I see no fire but I'm burning down

It's a trick of the light, messin' with mind
Then I done woke up and I opened my eyes
It was just a devil in a cheap disguise

But I was told about forgiveness, one love the only truth
I am here to bear witness, I surrender unto you

I'm burning down
Burning down but there ain't no fire
Burning down but there ain't no heat
Build me a boat and a body of water
Bring his blood and the bread to eat
