You can call me a cryer (Oh), but you hurt me bad
(You hurt me bad)
Tears run like water, I'm not lookin' back

'Cause you're just a liar and all that we had (All)
Is lost in the fire, burned into ashes

Call me a cryer, but you hurt me bad
Tears run like water, so I'm not lookin' back
'Cause you're just a liar and all that we had
Is lost in the fire, burned into ashes

(Keep 'em burnin') Burnin' to ashes
(Keep 'em burnin') Burnin' to ashes
(Keep 'em burnin') Oh, burned into ashes, oh
(Keep 'em burnin') Burnin' to ashes

Burned into ashes
