"Burn Down" lyrics

"Burn Down"

Today I moved out of a burning building
I packed the ashes and took em' with me
I stepped outside and called my mom
I said I'm alright but my shoes are gone
And the pavement's hot but it feels like velvet
My bloody feet on the ground, so hell-ish
It's heaven here in Hollywood
Doin' everything except for good

On my knees so I can pretend to pray

Smoke in my lungs and dirt in my mouth
I don't give a fuck if the city burns down
Let it burn down
La la la la la la la la la
La la la la la la la la la
I heard LA is a pretty cool town
To get in the ocean and let yourself drown
Let it burn down
La la la la la la la la la
La la la la la la la la la

I got brand new keys to put up my nose
With a brand new closet to keep my bones in
I wash the dirt right out my mouth
But unpack the ashes on my brand new couch

On my knees so I can pretend to pray

Smoke in my lungs and dirt in my mouth
I don't give a fuck if the city burns down
Let it burn down
La la la la la la la la la
La la la la la la la la la
I heard LA is a pretty cool town
To get in the ocean and let yourself drown
Let it burn down
La la la la la la la la la
La la la la la la la la la

Wonder if I should've stayed home
Back in the cold
I never listened when they said to me
Ah!
You'll be alone
You'll be alone
You'll be alone

Honestly I should've stayed home
Back in the cold
Back with my mom
What a tragedy it is to grow up
The less I know
I guess I should've stayed
