"World's Always Burning" lyrics

"World's Always Burning"
(feat. Mannequin Pussy)

Box office on a public killing
Tell me the first week sales
Need a second to call my attorney
While billionaires are out on bail
Caught with your pants down
Petrified in Pompeii
The other hand
Wouldn't have saved you, anyway

Couldn't get the bomb vest on
Don't ask me what went wrong

You can burn it down
"World's always been burning"
I can feel it now
I think that we deserve it

Pushing out commodities that will make me feel alive
Follow it up with SSRIs, so I don't wanna die
Micro-dosing shrooms hand-grown by the CIA
I'd be more valuable if I had nothing to say

Couldn't get the bomb vest on
Don't ask me what went wrong

You can burn it down
"World's always been burning"
I can feel it now
I think that we deserve it

The kids are all they/them
Do you think they play pretend?
Always on defense
Computers replaced immigrants
All the coke is fentanyl
Armie Hammer superbowl
Black lives, white crime
Changing words to "unalive"

You can burn it down
"World's always been burning"
I can feel it now
I think that we deserve it

The world is ending, but it's just another day (You can burn it down)
Soon there will be snow in Van Nuys, it'll be okay (I can feel it now)
