Disturbed - Watch You Burn Lyrics
I didn't mean to give my soul away
To have the life I thought that everybody wants
And I need to let you know I was wrong
It's a sham
They stole my heart and took control away
Will you'd think they'd help you out
But they don't give a damn
They lift you up
(You might feel it, but don't believe it)
You take your turn
(You'll see it, when you achieve it)
They light that spark
(You can't fight it)
Then sit back and watch you burn
They lift you up
(You might feel it, but don't believe it)
Give you your task
(You'll see it, when you achieve it)
When your world goes dark
(You can't hide it)
They'll just smile and watch you burn
You can't believe a single word they say
You tried to have the life that everybody wants
Pretty soon you'll figure out that you don't
It's a scam
You're torn apart, and then you're thrown away
And you become the one that everybody talks
By then there's no way out
It's all part of the plan
They lift you up
(You might feel it, but don't believe it)
You take your turn
(You'll see it, when you achieve it)
They light that spark
(You can't fight it)
Then sit back and watch you burn
They lift you up
(You might feel it, but don't believe it)
Give you your task
(You'll see it, when you achieve it)
When your world goes dark
(You can't hide it)
They'll just smile and watch you burn
They lift you up
You take your turn
(You'll see it, when you achieve it)
They light that spark
(You can't fight it)
Then sit back and watch you burn
They lift you up
(You might feel it, but don't believe it)
Give you your task
(You'll see it, when you achieve it)
When your world goes dark
(You can't hide it)
They'll just smile and watch you burn

Disturbed Watch You Burn Comments
LOVE DISTURBED!!!!!!!!!!!
whoa damn David Draiman
And the chord progression ♥️
Perfect run time 👌
about to listen to this for the first time...
I really like it!
Their interpretation of The Sound of Silence, first open my eyes to Disturbed. And since then, I've begun listening more and more to their music, mostly within the last 6 month.
I really enjoy their music and sound. And listening how they evolve is great, so far I like all I've heard from these guys...
I think the word "wants" in the line "that everybody wants" at the 2:10 mark is wrong. It should be "taunts".
this song is a message to the world
This song almost reaches so bad it's good territory. That chorus is histerical.
I wear this song describes the punisher in everyway, he sold his soul while in the military has the life all Americans want a family with the wife and kids, had it all taken away and the ones whom were supposed to help didn’t, and now he’s gonna make the world burn.
I imagine that the song is selling your soul for a life you end up not wanting in the end, just to be put in hell and burn.
Fools, trust No one and believe in nothing. You missed the whole song.
I like this
Fantastic everything!
???????? Wtf is this
Redemption.💗🙏
Society's entire structure is a scam for those on the bottom of the dominance hierarchy.
Almost get like some Tenacious D vibes from their new acoustic stuff which is awesome
LETS HAVE OUR OWN TURN BITCH. YOU WILL HAVE TO SHOW YOUR CHROMOSOMES...
I've been a fan for years and I love their heavier metal songs, but this one is still one of my new favorite. I swear everything they put out absolutely kills
truthful lyrics Danke
One of the lines of lyrics is presented wrong,, "your torn apart and then you're thrown away, and you become the one that everybody ("Taunts") not "wants"
Vocals music great but lyrics are seriously 10th grade level let's be honest
B...onsay + T...crooze = this song's warn...uh...message....
It’s soft but i love it
This song sounds like if Disturbed switched to an alternative rock genre. It's sounds good though.
This song is sad but so truthfull ♥️
Love it 🤚🏻♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️
Maybe its just me but around 3:00 totally brings to mind Led Zeppelin's song Kashmir! I love it!
Is it just me or did Disturbed just low-key Rick-Roll everyone? Whenever he says "they lift you up" it reminds me of "never gonna give you up"
Politics explained perfectly in this song!
I'm probably the biggest Dusturbed fan but this album was a solid 1/10.
This is exactly what they do to targeted individuals this song is awesome if you know what’s going on in the world today
I haven’t listened to Disturbed in years and when I heard that they released a new album I had to listen to it just to see what it’s like. And so far I like it. It’s very different than their other stuff but still good. And don’t understand why people are complaining about it. Bands can branch out and try different things.
Every band always say they wanna do something different, only a few actually do, Disturbed is one of em and they set the bar for the other bands
If you don't think this song is heavy go put it on some subs and blow your head off!
I think half of the songs on my Ipod are by Disturbed. I am such huge fans of theirs
0:00 put in x2 speed!
I love the song! His voice is terrific and really shines here!
Just downloaded it
Love this song
Good song
Yet still majority of people who listen and real lyrics will still think having the most name brand anything is the way to live.
I'm glad he figured out the truth. I hope he knows that Christ is waiting for him with open arms💜
why bring religion into it? complete joke on all parts
@Scott Bannerman Did you miss the part about selling his soul for fame??? That is not a metaphor. It is quite literal. It is never too late to ask Jesus for forgiveness and Salvation. 💚💙💜❤💛🧡
Nope, does nothing for me.
Omg I love the chorus :3
Back at my old school I was bullied and I only had one or two friends.i started trying to be like everyone ulse so that everyone would like me.i started being me and nasty like the popular kids at my old school.then I changed schools and everything started changing. People at my new school are nicer than my old school.but I was still holding on to the past.
So fucking true I love u
This is shit.
Where's 10k fists style?
What did they do to themselfs not happy with the album horrible😬
For those bitchen about intense rock being not, let me share something with you when you get older the energy that we end or start to feed and then we eventually die in my opinion these guys are still kicking ass what are they 50 now? I can appreciate this new album in fact I f****** love it imagine being 50 going on tour and playing hard as rocks on night after night after night after night David going to lose his voice
This is great AOR stuff. Could have come out in late 70s Chorus vocals and beat sound like Little River Band.
Obrigado pela evolução, as vezes é bom um pouco de poesia e menos barulho.
I'm getting a sense of anti-left wing establishment here, I'm loving it!
This is Disturbeds Black Album... So fucking amazing
It seems to me, that all of the people complaining about how they think the album is shit because the songs aren't as heavy as they like, fell in love with Disturbed for an entirely different reason than I did. The sound of the music is what caught my attention in the beginning, but what truly made me a fan was the fact that the lyrics and the music spoke to me on a personal level. During my teen years, I was a very angry person, so when David Draiman growled and screamed along with me, I always felt better afterwards.
I would like to think that I can grow and change, along with the band, because I am always going to love their music, no matter what it sounds like. It was listening to Disturbed that comforted me during my darkest moments, so I don't intend on becoming a hater, just because this album is different from the earlier ones.
I don't want to get stuck in the past and be that angry teen that I was all those years ago, when I first listened to The Sickness. Some people have decided that is what they want to do, but that is their choice. There will still be days when the earlier albums are what I need to listen to, but hopefully, there will be more days when songs like this one, can get the job done.
I fell in love with the band because Draimans vocals are fucking fire... These assholes that can't handle a music genres change can f*ck off
I love how Disturbed have such an amazing range in their music. Don't get me wrong, I absolutely love the heavy, thrashy stuff, but this softer approach is also great!! David has such an amazing voice and the band are capable of so many different sounds , why not try new stuff? I love it.
Great album! - you might feel it - but dont belive it
Favourite album yet!
Great song! Very cool!
I love this song, but need to point out the lyric mistake at 2:12, i hear "everybody taunts", and its written everybody wants again... no criticism on the song though!!
It is Everbody Wants... The way he says it while singing is a little odd but it does say Wants
With respect for Disturbed but honestly their new album isn't much wow now, still going back to old songs.
Watch me burn
Noooo !!! Where's the metal at ???
2000-2011... If you can't handle a genre change for a still awesome ass band, don't listen to it
@GameTesterDev Aye listen I do and say what I want. You have to listen to it at some point to comment. A d if I think they should do better then that's what it is...
Amazing I'm sharing!
Just Holy Crap!!!!😍😍😍😍😍😍
Messed up a lyric but still ok
This album just took the top spot on my list. Not a bad song on the album, and I can't decide which one is my favorite.
Best song of this album... definetly
I will love if they do this song but full band version
Love this, I like the diverse feeling in this album.
I came for the usual, heavier music, stayed for the community and amazing songs like this. :)
One of the lyrics lines is wrong,, Its not "You have become the one that everybody "Wants" ,, It "You have become the one that everybody "Taunts"
it kinda sounds like damh the bard
this song is about the illuminati, it's exactly what they do.....
Tobias Rheker EXACTLY!!! i have no idea why nobody is talking about this
To all of those people saying "this album sucks!, this album should have been heavier!" And all of that small minded shit, open your mind for a different view, not everything from Disturbed is gonna be the heaviest shit in the world, so accept that disturbed is gonna make a ballad here and there or just leave. No one likes negativity.
A Reason To Fight is the best of Disturbed!😀
I just saw them and they spent time talking about mental illness and drug addiction we all see it we have loses,but "brothers and sisters you are not alone."
Disturbed has ALWAYS been my most favorite band. I own every album and listen to their music more than any other band. David and crew are so awesome. David is the master of all kinds of rock and metal. From hardcore grunge to very soft like this beautiful song David is a musical God! Disturbed, #1!
when the fuck did they become Mr. Big
Whole damn album bangs, glad to see Disturbed continue to not just be a one trick pony
Can't wait to see y'all in Detroit❤️
Lyrically there’s none other better than David Draiman there’s a lot of truth to his music
I think what he’s trying to say there comes a point in life you have to take inventory of your life if you listen to the words it’s no different than any other Album except the music is different lyrically is the same but in hindsight is always 2020
"Watch your burn"
Man, was not expecting these chords 😅 My first Disturbed album and I love it.
Yeah I wasn't expecting the album to be like half ballad and half heavy, but I still loved it.
You guys should post the slideshow of all the Disturbed pictures from the past as a music video for this song. I thought that it was a really nice touch at the concert last week.
STILL killin it! 💙💜💓🖤
Truth. Love the strings. The different layers. FANTASTIC!
This song really hits me hard. I haven't had one to hit me this hard, in a long time!
I've heard a lot of people, including myself, say that they just keep doing the same thing over and over again. But now they're exploring new musical creativity. I don't really know what my point is. But shit, if I was a highly successive musician, I'd do whatever the hell I wanted to do too.
Love love, se you Stockholm 30/4
Everybody that hates their new songs I have one question. What have YOU written lately?
This song described the VA healthcare system perfectly.
I thought this song was about betrayal, kind of like Chalk Outline by 3DG
@Cyber Vic Rattlehead that's the VA hospitals. Talk to a few veterans.
Wow Wow Wow!!! Again a fantistic beautyful number*** His voiche? I'm in great big LOVE LOVE LOVE and in Heaven i'm***:) :) :)
Disturbed Helped me a lot in trying times... I'm greatful for thier music.
This song is f'n incredible!!! Bravo! Please play this Philly!
Did...he give his soul away to the devil...?
Yep. This is a warning.
I want epic symphonic album next, please Santa
Its the perfect length
To 4 from 10: This song is for you, my love.
Awww. I love that ship. 💙💚💛💜
@9 fangirl I love it too!
