I threw away the evidence and every little trace By now, it should be evident that I'm the one to blame I own the conflagration, it was I who lit the flame Then I flushed all of my matches down the drain
Oh, I know there's no excuse for what I did So the only thing I can do is admit
I was the arsonist The one who burned us to the ground after the argument Set fire to the room with our hearts in it And though I said that you're the one who started it I started it I was the arsonist But now I'll make it up to you for all the darkness For everything I put you through, let me start with this I started it Now I'll build back that room with our hearts in it I was the arsonist
Um, dum-dum-dum-dum-dum-dum, um, da-da, um, dum
I'm siftin' through the rubble and the ashes all around Liftin' with my shovel as it crashes through the ground I'm reminded that the trouble all the trouble that surrounds Is my fault and I'm here to fix it now
Oh, I know there's no excuse for what I did So the only thing I can do is admit
I was the arsonist The one who burned us to the ground after the argument Set fire to the room with our hearts in it And though I said that you're the one who started it I started it I was the arsonist But now I'll make it up to you for all the darkness For everything I put you through, let me start with this I started it Now I'll build back that room with our hearts in it I was the arsonist
Um, dum-dum-dum-dum-dum-dum, um, da-da, um, dum I was the arsonist Um, dum-dum-dum-dum-dum-dum, um, da-da, um, da
I'll pay the fine, do the time Leave that person behind Burn away the past and move past all my crime
I was the arsonist The one who burned us to the ground after the argument Set fire to the room with our hearts in it And though I said that you're the one who started it I started it I was the arsonist But now I'll make it up to you for all the darkness For everything I put you through, let me start with this I started it Now I'll build back that room with our hearts in it I was the arsonist
Um, dum-dum-dum-dum-dum-dum, um, da-da, um, dum I was the arsonist Um, dum-dum-dum-dum-dum-dum, um, da-da, um, da
