Rat City
Burn Down This Room
[Verse 1]
You think I like to play the victim
Say that it's clear in how I speak
Like it's some kind of competition of
Who hurts the most of you and me
What if for once you try to listen
You know, it's really not that deep
Oh, carry on with the partition
But drown your dignity in sea
[Pre-Chorus]
So leave me here abandoned and stranded
As if that's gonna do
Yeah, leave me empty-handed in band aid
The best that you can do
[Chorus]
Just set it all on fire and burn down this room
And strip my being to the wires and I'll learn to carry it through
But in any kind of way I'll make it clear for you
I'm not leaving quiet, baby, so burn down this room
[Verse 2]
Which one of us can scream the loudest?
So many careless things to say
And every word we will devour
It's like there is no better way
I swear there's something in the water
And now it's running in our veins
Because it keeps on getting harder
Since you're not ever gonna change
[Chorus]
Just set it all on fire and burn down this room (Burn down)
And strip my being to the wires and I'll learn to carry it through (Oh-oh)
But in any kind of way I'll make it clear for you
I'm not leaving quiet, baby, so burn down this room
[Post-Chorus]
Burn down this room
Burn down this room
[Refrain]
So leave me here abandoned and stranded
As if that's gonna do
Yeah, leave me empty-handed in band aid
The best that you can do
[Chorus]
Just set it all on fire and burn down this room
Strip my being to the wires and I'll learn to carry it through
But in any kind of way I'll make it clear for you (I'll make it clear)
I'm not leaving quiet, baby, so burn down this room
[Post-Chorus]
Burn down this room (Oh-oh)
Burn down this room (Oh-oh)
[Outro]
Burn down this room
Burn down this room
Burn down this room
Burn down this room
