11. City (3:34)
Let's watch it burn
Let's watch it burn
Let's watch this city burn the world
Let's watch this city burn
From the skylines on top of the world
'Til 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
Let's watch this city burn
From the skylines on top of the world
'Til there's nothing left of her
Let's watch this city burn the world
The city looks so pretty, do you wanna burn it with me?
'Til the skies bleeds ashes and the fucking skyline crashes
They catch us with matches to ignite the flame
And all the hopes of a youth deemed fucking insane
They say
Take the pill
In god we trust
Go and kill
God loves us
As in life as in death
Breathing 'til 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
Grab your saints and pray, we're gonna burn this world today
(Say it's the end of the world)
As in heaven as on earth
We've been dead since our birth
Let's watch this city burn
From the skylines on top of the world
Till there's nothing left in her
Let's watch this city burn the world
(Let's watch it burn)
(Let's watch it burn)
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?
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?
Let's watch this city burn
From the skylines on top of the world
Till there's nothing left in her
Let's watch this city burn the world
Let's watch this city burn
From the skylines on top of the world
Till there's nothing left in her
Let's watch this city burn the world
Let's watch it burn
Let's watch it burn
Let's watch this city burn the world
Let's watch it burn
Let's watch this city burn the world
Let's watch this city burn
From the skylines on top of the world
'Til 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
Let's watch this city burn
From the skylines on top of the world
'Til there's nothing left of her
Let's watch this city burn the world
The city looks so pretty, do you wanna burn it with me?

(Let's watch it burn)
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?
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?
Let's watch this city burn
From the skylines on top of the world
Till there's nothing left in her
Let's watch this city burn the world
Let's watch this city burn
From the skylines on top of the world
Till there's nothing left in her
Let's watch this city burn the world
Let's watch it burn
Let's watch it burn
Let's watch this city burn the world
