I’ma set this house on fire
Tired of all the liers
Burnin now by my small little lighter
Startin small, but quickly growin
I burned them all without anyone knowin
Pointin fingers, not knowin the truth
And with them I burned the memories too
And when the ashes are all that’s left
They’re the truths inside I never met

The author's comments:
This is more inspiration of how people will gossip and lie, rumors, how sometimes you just want everything to go up in flames so the rumors and drama will just stop.
But in reality of course it wouldn't happen, but this was like an angry moment for me when everything was getting so dramatic and hectic and I just wanted everyone to be quiet.
