Burn It Down Lyrics

Drank so much last night
I think that I drowned
But now my cup is empty
No one has seen my will around
Now my heart is aching
Sometimes I fall asleep for days
But my bed is empty
I know I am too set in my ways
Tell all I am ok

So burn it...

I think the song is about drug abuse; and the pain it causes, you can see this in the lyrics:

Drank so much last night
I think that I drowned
But now my cup is empty

and

Flew so high last night
I think that I fell to the ground so heavy
Woke up to find this living hell
It used to be so easy

basically Myles talks about how we need to
"Remember to find a new way to carry on"
