LYRICS

"You don't know me at all, 
But neither of us care to find out what's going on. 
You don't get it, 
You don't get it, 
No, you're not playing fair. 
I'm supposed to hurt you, 
And you're supposed to care. 

'Cause that's always how it worked 
But with the roles reversed and 
Just this once I don't want to be beaten. 

I only meant to lift you higher, 
But like the rest 
You're just another petty liar. 
So write your letters, 
Send your cares, 
You were never really there. 
If I had the chance to burn you 
I would light myself on fire 
Just in hopes that you'd regret this. 

I know I'll regret writing this song. 
So will I end up living just like you, 
Always pretending that nothing's wrong? 
You can't break me down 
And expect it not to hurt. 
You can't stand me back up 
And expect me to trust 
You won't throw me back in the dirt. 

How am I supposed to trust 
That anything you say is true? 
I'm entitled to the right to want nothing to do with you. 

I only meant to lift you higher, 
But like the rest 
You're just another petty liar. 
So write your letters, 
Send your cares, 
You were never really there. 
If I had the chance to burn you 
I would light myself on fire 
Just in hopes that you'd regret this. 

(If you had the chance) 
You'd put me on that stake. 
(If you had the chance) 
I would go down in flames. 
(If you had the chance) 
You'd put me on that stake. 
(If you had the chance) 
I would go down in flames. 

I only meant to lift you higher.... 

I only meant to lift you higher, 
But like the rest 
You're just another petty liar. 
So write your letters, 
Send your cares, 
You were never really there. 
If I had the chance to burn you 
I would light myself... 
I'd never burn you! 

I only meant to lift you higher, 
(Not who I thought you'd be) 
But like the rest 
You're just another petty liar. 
(Is something wrong with me?) 
So write your letters, 
Send your cares, 
You were never really there. 
If I had the chance to burn you 
I would light myself on fire 
Just in hopes that you'd regret this."

If I Had The Chance (To Burn You)

For The Fire is a rock band originating from Indianapolis. Founded in 2015, their music also features strong influences from various genres such as post-harcore, emo, pop punk, and metalcore. For The Fire was founded when vocalist Addison Rider met drummer Justin Whitlow at a local rock show, and began playing with him, soon bringing in bassist Jesse Barnes and lead guitarist Tyler Antal.
