Shayfer James - Built to Burn

If you need it
I'll build a cathedral in these hills
And write you a sermon
Where holy communion
Was whiskey and pills
A jig-sawed confession
Indecent act of contrition
Whatever the mess
We'll make the best of it
Cold blooded angels
Fly closer to the sun
Sugar from strangers
Is sweeter than none

We build a world and burn it down
Everything is pretty
When we burn it to the ground
We build a world and burn it down
Everything is pretty
When we burn it to the ground
We're built to burn

If it's fire you desire
I'll hire and unholy choir
And sing you
Through the rings of hell
Hot blooded demons
With heaven on their minds
Drunk from the dreams
Of unspeakable crimes

We build a world and burn it down
Everything is pretty
When we burn it to the ground
We build a world and burn it down
Everything is pretty
When we burn it to the ground
We're built to burn

No matter how long
No matter how long it takes
We'll make
A glorious disaster
No matter how long
No matter how long it takes
We'll set a blaze
To ever after

We build a world and burn it down
Everything is pretty
When we burn it to the ground
We build a world and burn it down
Everything is pretty
When we burn it to the ground
We're built to burn
