Burn This City

Lyrics

[Verse 1] Stay up all night and sleep all day We were smart kids with too much to say And so, so sure that they were missing out That they're the ones who are missing out [Pre-Chorus] We were elemental Talked down to bare essentials Who knew we'd get so far? [Chorus] Cause our days were numbered by nights on too many rooftops They said we'd burn so bright We burn this city and go [Verse 2] Play it again (our games of love and lust) There's no such thing (no there's never too much) And we were so, so sure, no we never had a doubt We're counting days to getting out [Pre-Chorus] We were elemental Talked down to bare essentials Who knew we'd get so far? (Who knew we'd get so far?) [Chorus] Cause our days were numbered by nights on too many rooftops They said we're wasting our lives But, oh at least we know That if we die We lived with passion They said we'd burn so bright We burn this city and go [Bridge ] (Pack our bags and get away, they're catching on to us) (So pack our bags and get away, they're catching on to us) Pack our bags and get away, they're catching on to us Pack our bags and get away, they're catching on to us Oh… Oh… Oh… Oh… [Chorus] Cause our days were numbered by nights on too many rooftops They said we're wasting our lives But, oh at least we know That if we die We lived with passion They said we'd burn so bright We burn this city and go [Outro] Our days were numbered by nights on too many rooftops (They said we're wasting our lives) (We burn this city and go) They said we're wasting our lives (And oh, we burn this city and go) Oh, at least we know, that if we die, we lived with passion (Yeah, we burn this city and go) They said we're wasting our lives, oh, oh, oh Our days were numbered by nights on too many rooftops They said we're wasting our lives Oh, at least we know, that if we die, we lived with passion They said we'd burn so bright, oh, oh, oh
