Burning Down - Meat Loaf

If it takes them so long, so long to say yes

Why don’t they just say no

We don’t need anyone to be put to the test

Why don’t they let us be

Livin' for the right to be, livin' for the right

Livin' for the right to be, livin' for the right

Livin' for the right to be free

We needed a plan, we needed defenses

They couldn’t raise a smile

As the world looked down, they raided our senses

There can be no reconcile

Burnin' down, burnin' down, burnin' down, burnin' down

There was a time in our life was taken for granted

It’ll never come again

Our flower is dead, the seed is unplanted

They put it all to the flame

Burnin' down, burnin' down, burnin' down, burnin' down

Burnin' down, burnin' down, burnin' down, burnin' down

Burnin' down, burnin' down

Burnin' down, burnin' down, burnin' down, burnin' down… (to fade)
