[Verse 1]

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



[Verse 2]

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



[Verse 3]

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
