Ali Barter
Light Them on Fire
[Verse 1]
I've seen it all, I know your plan
I've heard your name, I know your reflection
So, when you're crawling on the floor
Make me feel like I'm the exception
And I won't fall for it
I won't fall for you
I want better

[Verse 2]
Whispers won't get you very far
I know a story when I hear one
And if it's up to me, my dear
I'll take the hard truth when it's given
So hold your breath
'Cause I won't listen
I want better

[Pre-Chorus]
You're foolish
You're foolish
You're a fool

[Chorus]
Take your promises
Light them on fire
Empty words they will
Burn from the pyre
Your levee's cool
But I'm getting tired
Keep sending your letters
I'll light them on fire

[Verse 3]
I know you're jealous of the night
For when it's dark, no one can see you
But there are secrets you can't hide
Those kind of shadows never suit you
And I won't fall for it
I won't fall for you
I want better

[Chorus]
Take your promises
Light them on fire
Empty words they will
Burn from the pyre
Your levee's cool
But I'm getting tired
Keep sending your letters
I'll light them on fire

[Pre-Chorus]
You're foolish
You're foolish
You're a fool
You're foolish
You're foolish
You're a fool

[Bridge]
And I can't stand to see you crumble
I can't stand to see a man unravel

[Chorus]
Take your promises
Light them on fire
Empty words they will
Burn from the pyre
Your levee's cool
But I'm getting tired
Keep sending your letters
I'll light them on fire
I'll light them on fire
I'll light them on fire
I'll light them on fire
