Verse 1
i feel like i'm starting from scratch
teach everything i know and took it right back

i'm crawling after learning to fly
returning every single thing that i buy

and my wits are at an all time low
like they'd bit the dust a long time ago

you ask me all the time are we gunna make
how it's going now i guess we'll have to fake it 

Chorus
everything we need is in the books we burned
water won't salvage what we've earned
it's rising with the flames
set fire on a friday and never looked back
give anything to say i never did that
but it's too late 

Verse 2
tell me why i truck all my stuff to school
when everything in need to know is in you

but you put that on the pages
that were crumbled and outdated

Chorus
everything we need is in the books we burned
water won't salvage what we've earned
it's rising with the flames
set fire on a friday and never looked back
give anything to say i never did that
but it's too late 

Bridge
honey you tell me it's not that bad
when
everything we ever had
is swimming with the stars
now won't go far to get it
honey you tell me it's not that bad
when
everything we ever had
is swimming with the stars
now won't go far to get it

Chorus
everything we need is in the books we burned
water won't salvage what we've earned
it's rising with the flames
set fire on a friday and never looked back
give anything to say i never did that
but it's too late 


Books We Burned (original song)

Verse 1:
said i spend my days searching for the water
from a spring not touched by a human hand 

said i told my daddy i would be a daughter
who would only settle for the high demand 

so i spend my life reaching out to venus
when all i need is growing at my feet

and i swear theres been a place that i have seen this
in the tales of tragedy and full defeat 

CHORUS
well i i i i i've been waiting for so long
iiiiiiii've been writing the same damn songs 
well heaven sent one day come
every little thing come undone 
can't wait for me to have my fun

VERSE 2
said a prince once took me out to the water
help my hand and got down on one knee

took a shining diamond from his pocket
i ran away in fright i'd be unfree

CHORUS
