Burn This City Lyrics

Are we alive, 'cause I heard a rumour,
That the day we died was yesterday,
So are we rotting now? Can't find our graves,
Well they create a lie built out of structure
And routine by robots, but this night,
We're taking the virus to them

Burn this city to let them know we're here,
Burn this city to reinstall the fear,
How can I sleep when you pull focus,
Right before my eyes?

Still they find another way to put a different
Gun to our heads, and so I take a breath,
There's plenty of time to sleep when I'm dead,
Is this the only way it's ever gonna be?
Right before my eyes

Don't wanna think about the end,
When this ride is just getting started,
Roads uncharted, or is this the end of the line?
I'm not giving lessons on how stars are forged,
I just keep my finger on the trigger,
And blow 'em away one by one

So can we all scream? (yeah),
Loud enough to awaken the zombies
Of society who control these times

Burn this city to let them know we're here,
Burn this city to reinstall the fear,
How can I sleep when you pull focus,
Right before my eyes?

Still they find another way to put a different
Gun to our heads, and so I take a breath,
There's plenty of time to sleep when I'm dead,
Is this the only way it's ever gonna be?
Right before my eyes

And I still wanna see the light
Shining in front of my eyes

Running's easy, where will we go?
Who knows? Don't look back
As long as I've got you we'll make it

Burn this city to let them know we're here,
Burn this city to reinstall the fear,
How can I sleep when you pull focus,
Right before my eyes?

Still they find another way to put a different
Gun to our heads, and so I take a breath,
There's plenty of time to sleep when I'm dead,
Is this the only way it's ever gonna be?
Right before my eyes

Burn this city to let them know we're here,
Burn this city to reinstall the fear,
Now I see the turning point is,
Right before my eyes
