I let it fall, my heart
And as it fell, you rose to claim it
It was dark and I was over
Until you kissed my lips and you saved me
My hands they were strong
To stand in your arms
Without falling to your feet
But there's a side, to you, that I never knew, never knew
All the things you'd said, they were never true, never true
And the games you'd played, you would always win, always win
But I set fire to the rain
Watched it pour as I touched your face
Well, it burned while I cried'
Cause I heard it screaming out your name, your name!
When I lay, with you
I could stay there, close my eyes
Feel you here forever
You and me together, nothing gets better!
Cause there's a side, to you, that I never knew, never knew
All the things you'd said, they were never true, never true
And the games you'd played, you would always win, always win
But I set fire to the rain
Watched it pour as I touched your face
Well, it burned while I cried'
Cause I heard it screaming out your name, your name!
I set fire to the rain
And I threw us into the flames
Well, it felt something died'
Cause I knew that that was the last time, the last time!
Sometimes I wake up by the door
That heart you caught must be waiting for ya
Even now when we're already over
I can't help myself from looking for ya
I set fire to the rain
Watched it pour as I touched your face
Well, it burned while I cried'
Cause I heard it screaming out your name, your name!
I set fire to the rain
And I threw us into the flames
Well, it felt something died'
Cause I knew than that was the last time, the last time!
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
Let it burn

Line by Line Meaning
I let it fall, my heart
I allowed myself to fall in love with you
And as it fell, you rose to claim it
As I became more vulnerable, you took advantage of me
It was dark and I was over
I was in a dark place emotionally and mentally
Until you kissed my lips and you saved me
You gave me a glimmer of hope and made me feel alive again
My hands they were strong
I thought I could handle anything on my own
But my knees were far too weak
But when it comes to you, I am powerless
To stand in your arms
Being near you is both comforting and terrifying
Without falling to your feet
I am completely under your spell
But there's a side, to you, that I never knew, never knew
You have a hidden side that I was unaware of
All the things you'd said, they were never true, never true
You lied and deceived me
And the games you'd played, you would always win, always win
Your manipulations were successful, and you always came out on top
But I set fire to the rain
I am taking control and getting rid of my emotional attachment to you
Watched it pour as I touched your face
I am letting go of my feelings for you, even as I see you in front of me
Well, it burned while I cried'
It hurts to let go of someone I cared for deeply
Cause I heard it screaming out your name, your name!
My emotions were overwhelming, and I felt consumed by thoughts of you
When I lay, with you
When I was in a relationship with you
I could stay there, close my eyes
Being with you felt safe and familiar
Feel you here forever
I hoped that our love would endure
You and me together, nothing gets better!
We had something special and unique
And I threw us into the flames
I am willing to destroy any chance of us being together
Well, it felt something died'
My love for you is gone
Cause I knew that that was the last time, the last time!
I am fully aware that our relationship is over
Sometimes I wake up by the door
I still find myself longing for you
That heart you caught must be waiting for ya
You have captured my heart, and it still yearns for you
Even now when we're already over
Even though our relationship is finished
I can't help myself from looking for ya
I still have feelings for you and can't let go
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
Chorus
Let it burn
I am letting go of the pain and hurt that you caused me
