Lyrics for Song: Burn It Down
Lyrics for Album: Television City Dream [1998]
And now i wonder what's going on and who's really in
another world while you're asleep the makeup you're
wearing runs down your face like so many tears watch
them piss away any hope for change any hope for anything
new and watch them burn it down turn the hoses on and
announce a new beginning tonight we wave and give up
a smile as a flaming shuttle passes by outside the
window something is creeping a burning skeleton beams
with pride step over bodies past corpses in waiting blank
It's just a human shell it's just a memory your indecision
is a contribution to the cancer that infects the earth
that impassioned speech almost provides the heat to
keep the people sleeping on the streets warm out there
in the cold in a burnt-out world tonight we'll drink
champagne and dance until it's dawn safe inside our
fenced and guarded lawns let it burn down tonight ignore
the blackened skies pouring down a bloody red rain
your television's watching you watching a blank watching
a slab or meat you're just a memory it's burning down
tonight for the rest of your life it's gonna be so cold
