Let It Burn
Armies Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

When I find myself in times of trouble, Mother Mary comes to me
Speaking words of wisdom, let it be
And in my hour of darkness she is standing right in front of me
Speaking words of wisdom, let it be
Let it be, let it be, let it be, let it be
Whisper words of wisdom, let it be

And when the broken hearted people living in the world agree
There will be an answer, let it be
For though they may be parted, there is still a chance that they will see
There will be an answer, let it be
Let it be, let it be, let it be, let it be
There will be an answer, let it be
Let it be, let it be, let it be, let it be
Whisper words of wisdom, let it be
Let it be, let it be, let it be, let it be
Whisper words of wisdom, let it be

And when the night is cloudy there is still a light that shines on me
Shine until tomorrow, let it be
I wake up to the sound of music, Mother Mary comes to me
Speaking words of wisdom, let it be
Let it be, let it be, let it be, yeah, let it be
There will be an answer, let it be




Let it be, let it be, let it be, yeah, let it be
Whisper words of wisdom, let it be

Didn't find a comment with the lyrics yet so here:

Take my hand and look me in the eye, there's still time left
Cut these chords and kid run for your life

Maybe you're broken, maybe you're shattered
With no reasons left to try
But you still have so much, so much worth saving
That you have left on the inside

I know you feel like you are worthless, and that your day has come
The misery eats you alive until you come undone
You feel like there is nowhere left to call your home tonight
You are not alone, this is our time, and I am by your side

My friend this is do or die

Hey kid can you hear me?
Don't you dare pull the trigger and throw it all away
You have every reason left to stay alive
All this hell you've lived and seen
Drown it all in gasoline
Than light a match, pull the pin
You are not, who you've been
The past is just lessons learned
So light it up, and let it burn🔥

Never thought that it would come to this, who will save you?
Fading fast, now you are cancerous

I know you feel hopeless, at the end of your rope now
The fear is eating you alive
So I'll be your reason, I'll be your shelter
I will not let you say goodbye

Have you no reason to forget your pain and swear you'll stay?
If you kiss it all goodbye, my friend, the world will be a darker place
I know you're scared to death, but this is not the time to hide
You were meant for so much more, I won't let you leave this world behind

What will it take to survive?

Hey kid can you hear me?
Don't you dare pull the trigger and throw it all away
You have every reason left to stay alive
All this hell you've lived and seen
Drown it all in gasoline
Than light a match, pull the pin
You are not, who you've been
The past is just lessons learned
So light it up, and let it burn🔥

You will remember the day
You burned it all to the ground
I know you've heard this before
But you've gotta be strong now
This is not the end!

Hey kid can you hear me?
Don't you dare pull the trigger, throw it all away
You have every reason left to stay alive
All this hell you've lived and seen
Drown it all in gasoline
Than light a match, pull the pin
You are not, who you've been
The past is just lessons learned
🔥Let it burn🔥

🔥Let it burn🔥

🔥Let it burn🔥

The past is just lessons learned
So light it up, and let it burn

The moment I am typing this I just got out of one of my Suicidal thought processing. Earlier today I was feeling rather hopeless I had my pocket knife sharpened the day before thinking about ending it right then and there. I also had music going and I was just sitting there and listening while thinking to myself. This song happened to come on and I put it on loop and just listened with my mind thinking about each word. It reminded me of the promise I and my best friend have. Our promise to each other was

"No matter what, Even if it's an extremely rough time. Do not end it earlier then you're supposed to. We have each other to go if we need help. We have music on our side to just calm our nerves."

I'm not going to lie I started to cry thinking that if I broke that promise to her, She'd break that promise to me. Your songs help me think on the positive side of things and I appreciate it.

To everyone reading this,

Don't end it you have so much to live for. It's not over for you just yet. You can create your own dream if you work hard enough and believe in yourself enough for it. You're special to me and we're strangers. I care for you even if you don't believe so. I've been in dark places as well. We aren't alone we have each other. No matter how rough your life is you matter to us so much. Keep working on it sport! I'm cheering for you! :)

With lots of love and support,
707V~
