Make the best of a bad situation
Grind teeth and just push on through
Decline a chance to prosper
Outshine the ancient rules
Waste away as we call it a nation
Work skeletons into dust
We don't want to set a fire
But if we must...
We'll burn it down
A million pacifists
Outnumbered and overruled
Every day I see it happening
Violence and discontent
Chaotic brainwashed fools
Content to keep their eyes closed to the truth
I just want to burn the city down
Fan all the flames and we'll smoke them out
I just want to burn this city down
Raise up new flags and shout the message loud
I feel this can't be right
The worst is yet to come
And I can see it far enough
Make the best of a bad situation
Grind teeth and just push on through
We'll never get another chance to prosper
And that's the truth, so...
I just want to burn the city down
Fan all the flames and we'll smoke them out
I just want to burn this city down
Raise up new flags and shout the message loud
And burn it down
Burn off the crooked branches
Rebuild it from the ashes
I just want to burn the city down
Fan all the flames and we'll smoke them out
I just want to burn this city down
Raise up new flags and shout the message loud
And burn it down
