Sometimes this house don’t feel like home
It’s full of things that I own but they’re not me
The pipes are leaking and the doors stick
Everywhere there’s a quick fix threatening
Chorus
Sometimes I wish I could burn it down
Strike a match and turn around and never look back
Sometimes I’d like to do the same to me
From the ashes of what used to be like a phoenix rise
Like a phoenix rise
There’s pictures on the walls to show I’ve tried
To fit in this life and make the best of things
But I see through everyone of those smiles
To the man inside who lost his dreams
Chorus
Sometimes I wish I could burn it down
Strike a match and turn around and never look back
Sometimes I’d like to do the same to me
From the ashes of what used to be like a phoenix rise
Like a phoenix rise
Bridge
I know I should be thankful for this life
But i can’t help but wonder what it’d be like
Chorus
Sometimes I wish I could burn it down
Strike a match and turn around and never look back
Sometimes I’d like to do the same to me
From the ashes of what used to be like a phoenix rise
Like a phoenix rise
Like a phoenix rise
It’s full of things that I own but they’re not me
The pipes are leaking and the doors stick
Everywhere there’s a quick fix threatening
Chorus
Sometimes I wish I could burn it down
Strike a match and turn around and never look back
Sometimes I’d like to do the same to me
From the ashes of what used to be like a phoenix rise
Like a phoenix rise
There’s pictures on the walls to show I’ve tried
To fit in this life and make the best of things
But I see through everyone of those smiles
To the man inside who lost his dreams
Chorus
Sometimes I wish I could burn it down
Strike a match and turn around and never look back
Sometimes I’d like to do the same to me
From the ashes of what used to be like a phoenix rise
Like a phoenix rise
Bridge
I know I should be thankful for this life
But i can’t help but wonder what it’d be like
Chorus
Sometimes I wish I could burn it down
Strike a match and turn around and never look back
Sometimes I’d like to do the same to me
From the ashes of what used to be like a phoenix rise
Like a phoenix rise
Like a phoenix rise
