BURN IT OUT [Intro – distorted whisper] Eraldo did it again… I feel it crawling… Under my skin… Again… again… [Verse 1 – tense rap-rock] I got a storm in my chest and a fist in my throat, Every word that I buried is starting to choke. I keep smiling like nothing is wrong, But the pressure keeps building, it’s been here too long. You said, “Calm down,” like you knew what I felt, Like you ever saw the damage I did to myself. I was fighting in silence, alone in the dark, Trying not to become every wound, every scar. I’m tired of walking with chains on my feet, Tired of losing every war in my sleep. Every night, every thought, every doubt, every shout— I don’t wanna hold it in. I wanna burn it out. [Pre-Chorus – rising] One more lie, One more sound, One more second and I’m breaking down. No more fear, No more doubt, Light the match— And burn it out. [Chorus – explosive] Burn it out, burn it out, Let the fire take it now. All the pain, all the rage, All the ghosts I couldn’t name. Burn it out, burn it out, I don’t wanna drown it down. Même si le monde me tourne le dos, I’ll let it burn, I’ll let it go. Whoa-oh-oh… Burn it out. Whoa-oh-oh… Burn it out. Light it up, light it up, Till there’s nothing left but us. [Post-Chorus – screamed chant] BURN! IT! OUT! Je ne veux plus me cacher! BURN! IT! OUT! I’m taking back what’s left of me! [Verse 2 – faster rap] I was built from the cracks, from the cuts, from the blame, From the nights I was lost and ashamed of my name. Every time I got pushed, every time I got used, I was feeding the fire with nothing to lose. You can call me unstable, call me too far gone, But you never had to live with the noise this strong. You don’t know what it takes just to stand up straight When your own mind turns your body into a cage. I’m done being quiet, done playing nice, Done paying forever for everyone’s price. I got blood in my voice, got truth in my mouth, And tonight, I’m letting everything out. [Pre-Chorus] One more lie, One more sound, One more second and I’m breaking down. No more fear, No more doubt, Light the match— And burn it out. [Chorus] Burn it out, burn it out, Let the fire take it now. All the pain, all the rage, All the ghosts I couldn’t name. Burn it out, burn it out, I don’t wanna drown it down. Même si le monde me tourne le dos, I’ll let it burn, I’ll let it go. Whoa-oh-oh… Burn it out. Whoa-oh-oh… Burn it out. Light it up, light it up, Till there’s nothing left but us. [Bridge – piano, vulnerable] What if I’m not broken? What if I’m just tired? What if all this darkness Only means I need the light? Et si je suis encore vivant, Même après tout ce temps? Même si mon cœur est en morceaux, Il bat encore sous ma peau. [Build-Up – whisper to scream] I kept it in… I kept it down… I let it eat me from the inside out… But not again… Not anymore… BURN IT— [Breakdown – heavy] OUT! I WON’T DIE INSIDE THIS ROOM! I WON’T CARRY ALL YOUR DOOM! I WON’T BEND! I WON’T BREAK! I WON’T GIVE YOU WHAT YOU CAME TO TAKE! Burn the fear! Burn the shame! Burn every voice that called me weak! Je suis debout! Je suis vivant! Now hear me when I speak! [Final Chorus – bigger, anthemic] Burn it out, burn it out, Let the whole world hear me now. All the pain, all the rage, I’m not living in that cage. Burn it out, burn it out, Watch me rise above the ground. Même si la nuit me veut à genoux, I’ll light the sky, I’ll make it through. Whoa-oh-oh… Burn it out. Whoa-oh-oh… Hear me now. Light it up, light it up, Till the darkness gives me up. [Final Chant] Burn it out! Burn it out! Burn it out! Burn it out! Je ne tombe plus! Je ne fuis plus! Burn it out! Burn it out! [Outro – distorted vocal] I wasn’t made to disappear. Eraldo production…
