the burning of my books - luke hennisch lyrics

Loading...

[verse 1]
i bide my time
by the pen of my desk
“i thought that you were funny”
“they told me you were funny”
they thought wrong

[verse 2]
i say the things they don’t wanna hear
but i sing
sing them anyways
but these are the ones they tune out
“play us all your silly songs”
“and then we’d start to sing along”

[chorus]
now it’s the burning of the books i made
it’s the burning of the books i made
i have not a voice and name
as my work goes up in flames

[verse 3]
i hide my face from the crowd at large
i tried to ditch from this town after dark
but i stuck out to thе crowd
and they thought i was too loud
and they put me through this trial
so i think i’ll stay for awhilе
[chorus]
and the flames start to trickle away
the remnants of the books i made
i can’t even show my face
since i showed them all the books i made

[bridge]

[outro]
go and run away
go and run away
go and hide away
just go and hide away
