Watch it catch,
Watch it burn,
Watch the rubble smolder and smoke,
Watch the ash lift to the sky
And beckon a new hope.

Listen for the sirens
That calls in the wake
Of the piling flames,
Fueled;
It’s to late.

Watch it catch
Watch it burn
Try and put it out.
Listen to the sirens,
Listen to the shouts.

Feel the strong vibrations
As it all starts to fall.
And listen for the sirens,
They are your last call.

Watch it catch
Watch it burn
See it all fall down,
The road has ended
There is no going back now.
