Our city isn't perfectOur city is a blaze of neon flare
Does anybody care
Fractured lines in the pavement
Embers colour the air
These streets we named
Will never be the sameThis fire, this fire, this fire we let it
This fire, this fire, this fire we let it
This fire, this fire, this fire we let it all burn
This fire, this fire, this fire we let it
This fire, this fire, this fire we let it
This fire, this fire, this fire we let it all burnPeople fall into silence
The wind she whistles a song
Of hopelessness
That carries like a hymn
Our city is a burdenThe waste land under our feet
We've come to know
Will never be enoughThis fire, this fire, this fire we let it
This fire, this fire, this fire we let it
This fire, this fire, this fire we let it all burnThis fire, this fire, this fire we let it
This fire, this fire, this fire we let it
This fire, this fire, this fire we let it all burn
If all we do is blame
And noone cares to listen
There's nothing left to say
But if we stake our claim
Let action speak the loudest
We'll dance beyond the flamesThis fire, this fire, this fire we let it
This fire, this fire, this fire we let it
This fire, this fire, this fire we let it all burn
