[Chorus:] (Let's watch it burn) [X2] Let's watch this city burn the world Let's watch this city burn From the skylights on top of the world Till there's nothing left of her Let's watch this city burn the world
My body doused in ash with two empty cans of gas The only evidence they have is a police sketch of my mask And it's hard at times to ask if you can save my heart for last And it's hard to face the facts when the darkness fades to black
It's not just make believe when they make me take a seat And they put amphetamines in the air and make me breathe So come on and grab your children look out for burning buildings And villains who pillage, they're killing by the millions And billions of people die for a lost cause So now I pray to my nation destroyed under god
(It's the end of the world) All my battles have been won But the war has just begun
[Chorus]
The city looks so pretty, do you wanna burn it with me? Till the skies bleeds ashes and the fucking sky crashes They catch us with matches to ignite the flame And all the hopes that we all deem fucking insane and say:
Take the pill In God we trust Go and kill God loves us As in life as in death Breathing till there is no breath
I will not die in the night but in the light Of the sun with the ashes of this world in my lungs But who am I to say let's all just run away Go grab your fancy pay we're gonna rule the world today
(Say it's the end of the world) As in Heaven, as in Earth We've been dead since our birth
[Chorus]
(Let's watch the city burn) [X2] The city looks so pretty, do you wanna burn it with me? The city looks so pretty do you wanna burn it with me The city looks so pretty do you wanna burn it with me
We use the trees as torches Do you wanna burn it with me Fill the streets with corpses Do you wanna burn it with me Watch the city fucking bleed Do you wanna burn it with me Bring the world to its knees Do you wanna burn it with me
[Chorus x2]
Let's watch it burn Let's watch it burn Let's watch this city burn the world
