The Burning Down Lyrics

Cover art for The Burning Down lyrics by King's X

When you're in love, when you've believed ardently in a country or a god, when you've loved an organisation, there comes a time when the passion fades, when the light of knowledge dawns that you can give everything and never see a single ounce of your love come back to you. It's at that moment you decide if it's real or an illusion and if it's worth the cold pain of that fire burning down.
