Berikut ini lirik lagu “The Arsonist” dari Alec Benjamin.
[Verse 1]
I threw away the evidence and every little trace
By now, it should be evident that?I'm?the one to?blame
I own the conflagration, it was?I who lit the flame
Then I flushed all of my matches down the drain
[Pre-Chorus]
Oh, I know there's no excuse for what I did
So the only thing I can do is admit
[Chorus]
I was the arsonist
The one who burned us to the ground after the argument
Set fire to the room with our hearts in it
And though I said that you're the one who started it
I started it
I was the arsonist
But now I'll make it up to you for all the darkness
For everything I put you through, let me start with this
I started it
Now I'll build back that room with our hearts in it
I was the arsonist
