Emma Steinbakken - House On Fire Lyrics

These walls are caving in
And now I can't pretend
I'm not a little scared
What if we wear us out
Just like my beat up couch?
I guess I'm unprepared

I heard that something too good can be done 'til you hate it
If it's too pretty, it's easy to break it
Are we okay or a mess in the making?

We get along like a house on fire
What if we burn it to the ground?
And watch the flames go higher and higher
Until we're ashes crawling down, 'cause
We burn, we burn, we burn, we burn it down
(We burn, we burn, we burn, we burn, burn)
We burn, we burn, we burn, we burn it down
(We burn, we bu-)

Honestly ran out of things to say
And you don't wanna stay
What if our love goes south?
What if we use up all the air
So that we stop to care?
Don't wanna think about that now

I heard that something too good can be done 'til you hate it
If it's too pretty, it's easy to break it
Are we okay or a mess in the making?

We get along like a house on fire
What if we burn it to the ground?
And watch the flames go higher and higher
Until we're ashes crawling down, 'cause
We burn, we burn, we burn, we burn it down
(We burn, we burn, we burn, we burn, burn)
We burn, we burn, we burn, we burn it down
(We burn, we bu-)

We get along like a house on fire
What if we burn it to the ground?
