Something From Nothing (Chicago) [2014 Sonic Highways]
Give me the flammable life I'm cold as a match Ready to strike So here I go...
Here lies a city on fire Singing along The arsonist choir Now here I go...
It started with a spark And burned into the dark Now here I go...
There is a river I found Into the wild Under the ground So here I go...
A button on a string And I heard everything Now here I go...
Oh sweet ignition be my fuse You have no choice you have to choose Bid farewell to yesterday Say goodbye I'm on my way
But in the end we all Come from what's come before So here I go...
Oh sweet ignition be my fuse You have no choice you have to choose Bid farewell to yesterday Say goodbye I'm on my way I threw it all away because I had to be what never was Been so hungry I could lie You took my word I took your wine And held you in my bloody hands These rattled bones and rubber bands Washed them in the muddy water Looking for a dime and found a quarter But you can't make me change my name You'll never make me change my name Pay no mind now ain't that something Fuck it all! I came from nothing
I'm something From nothing You are my fuse I'm something From nothing You are my fuse It goes...
No you can't make me change my name You'll never make me change my name Pay no mind now ain't that something Fuck it all! I came from nothing I'm something From nothing I'm something From nothing
