[Intro]
I don't understand, why
See, it's burning me to hold onto this
I know this is something I gotta do
But that don't mean I want to
What I'm trying to say is that I love you
I just—I feel like this is coming to an end
And it's better for me to let it go now than hold on and hurt you
I gotta let it burn

[Chorus]
Deep down you know it's best for yourself
But you hate the thought of her being with someone else
But you know that it's over, over, over
Let it burn
Let it burn
Gotta let it burn
Deep down you know it's best for yourself
But you hate the thought of her being with someone else
But you know that it's over, over, over
Let it burn
Let it burn
Gotta let it burn

Let it burn
Let it burn
Gotta let it burn
Deep down you know it's best for yourself
But you hate the thought of her being with someone else
But you know that it's over, over, over
Let it burn
Let it burn
Gotta let it burn
Deep down you know it's best for yourself
But you hate the thought of her being with someone else
But you know that it's over, over, over
Let it burn
Let it burn
Gotta let it burn

It's been fifty-eleven days, umpteen hours
I'ma be burnin' 'til you return, oh-ho
No, the party ain't jumpin' like it used to
Let it burn, let it burn, you gon' learn
Gotta let burn, oh
[Chorus]
Deep down you know it's best for yourself
But you hate the thought of her being with someone else
But you know that it's over
(Know it's over, know it's through)
Let it burn
Let it burn
Gotta let it burn
Deep down you know it's best for yourself
But you hate the thought of her being with someone else
But you know that it's over, over, over
Let it burn
Let it burn
Gotta let it burn
Deep down you know it's best for yourself
But you hate the thought of her being with someone else
But you know that it's over, over, over
Let it burn
Let it burn
Gotta let it burn

[Outro]
But you hate the thought of her being with someone else
But you know that it's over
Let it burn, oh, let it burn
Gotta let it burn
[Instrumental]
