|
There's truth beneath the floorboards, there's hope in brick and stone |
|
They tell me just to shut my mouth, leave well enough alone |
|
But I think maybe all that's needed is a match and gasoline |
|
'Cause I don't think that any one of them believes that there will be a reckoning |
|
But I will see this city burn |
|
Still good shepherds scattered but they're far between and few |
|
And the sheep's skin that the wolves all wear, so thin I see right through |
|
And I think maybe all that's needed is some gas and open flame |
|
'Cause I don't think that any one of them believes that fire can erase their names |
|
But I will see this city burn |
|
I said I will see this city burn |
|
We will burn it down and |
|
Build it again, what was buried in flame |
|
Burn it down and |
|
Build it again from the bricks that remain |
|
I love this city, but I've set and numbered its days |
|
I love this city enough that I'll set it ablaze |
|
I love this city, but I've set and numbered its days |
|
I love this city enough that I'll set it ablaze |
|
There is truth beneath the floorboards, there's hope in brick and stone |
|
They tell me just to shut my mouth, leave well enough alone |
|
But I think that maybe all that's needed is some flint and hardened steel |
|
'Cause I don't think that any one of them believes the revolution's real |
|
We will burn it down and |
|
Build it again what was buried in flame |
|
Burn it down and |
|
Build it again from the bricks that remain |
|
We will burn it down and |
|
Build it again what was buried in flame |
|
Burn it down and |
|
Build it again from the bricks that remain |
|
I love this city, but I've set and numbered its days |
|
I love this city enough that I'll set it ablaze |
|
I love this city, but I've set and numbered its days |
|
I love this city enough that I'll set it ablaze |
|
I love this city, but I've set and numbered its days |
|
I love this city enough that I'll set it ablaze |
|
I love this city, but I've set and numbered its days |
|
I love this city enough that I'll set it ablaze |
|
And it will burn |
|
Watch the city burn |
|
It will burn |
