Rome Is Burning lyrics
by Zedd
[Verse 1: Bebe Rexha]
Didn't set the fire, but we watched it burn
Yeah we built it up to be the envy of the world
And you lie like a fox, but you love like an open flame
One minute you hold me down, and now you're drowning me
[Pre-Chorus: Both]
So don't you tell me
'Cause words ain't enough
When the only thing left to give is up
[Chorus: Bebe Rexha, Both]
So maybe we should let it burn, let it be
Don't you come running back for me
Live and you learn
Maybe we should let it burn, let it be
Don't you come running back for me
Live and you learn
Baby, we should let it burn
[Verse 2: Sam James]
We didn't start the fire, but we watched it fade
This heart we shared has been burned up in flames
We're just soldiers in a broken world
Tryna fight the pain
I gave you everything, but our love I can't save
[Pre-Chorus: Both]
So don't you tell me
'Cause words ain't enough
When the only thing left to give is up
[Chorus: Bebe Rexha, Both]
So maybe we should let it burn, let it be
Don't you come running back for me
Live and you learn
Maybe we should let it burn, let it be
Don't you come running back for me
Live and you learn
Baby, we should let it burn
[Bridge: Bebe Rexha, Sam James, Both]
Had the kind of love where we throw caution to win
Now Rome is burning again
Yeah, Rome is burning again
Built them tall, but now the walls are crumbling in
Now Rome is burning again
Now Rome is burning again
[Pre-Chorus: Bebe Rexha, Sam James, Both]
So don't you tell me
'Cause words ain't enough
(Words ain't enough)
When the only thing left to give is up
[Chorus: Both]
Maybe we should let it burn, let it be
Don't you come running back for me
Live and you learn
Maybe we should let it burn, let it be
Don't you come running back for me
Live and you learn
Baby, we should let it burn
[Outro: Bebe Rexha, Sam James]
Burn, burn, burn, burn
Burn, burn, burn, whoa-oh
Baby we should let it
Burn, burn, burn, burn
Burn, burn, burn, whoa-oh
Burn, burn, burn, burn
Burn, burn, burn, whoa-oh
Baby, we should let it burn
(Burn, burn, burn, burn)
Baby, we should let it burn
(Burn, burn, burn, whoa-oh)
Burn, burn, burn, burn
Burn, burn, burn, whoa-oh
