"Burning Rome" lyrics - ST. PAUL AND THE BROKEN BONES

ST. PAUL AND THE BROKEN BONES
"Burning Rome"

Where'd you go my sweet devotion
Can I find you in that sea of those old gravel highways
You are stronger 'cause I'm weak
You are wiser 'cause I seek

[Chorus:]
I'm burning Rome
Oh I'm burning Rome

Lord I know that you can hear my same sad songs
But the numbness that falls on my heart on those old southern nights
You are hurting when I cry
I'm screaming why oh why

[Chorus:]
Am I burning Rome
Am I burning Rome

There it goes that precious light upon my feet
Now I am carried down by the stones of that young heartache
I'm stronger 'cause you're weak
I'm wiser 'cause I seek

[Chorus:]
Oh I'm burning Rome
Oh I'm burning Rome

[Outro:]
I'm burning Rome
I'm burning, I'm burning Rome
I'm burning, I'm burning Rome
I'm burning, I'm burning Rome baby
I'm burning Rome
I'm burning, I'm burning Rome
