The World Is Burning

The world is burning
So let’s get fucked up
Before the flames come for us
The power failed as quickly as the flash lit up the sky
Another storm, another bomb
Here, we die
The pastor lit the candles
The imam kneeled to pray
The rabbi kept close to the flame
The war outside waged on and on
The rally gets pepper sprayed
So why not go out with some style and grace?
Why not go out laughing in death’s face?
'Cause the world is burning
So let’s get fucked up before the flames come for us
The flooded are confined to their roofs
Those trapped are choked by the smoke
Others buried suffocating in their graves
The presidents made their statements
Kings kissed their flags
Those cowards did little more than send thoughts and prayers
While the storm outside raged on and on
The sea wall cracked and gave way
So why not go out with some style and grace?
Why not go out laughing in death’s face?
The world is burning
So let’s get fucked up before the flames come for us
So let’s get fucked up before the flames come for us
So let’s get fucked up before the flames come for us
