If this is the final fire
What will become of us?
Are we just destined to be ashes and dust?
How you’d burn it all to dust.
Combustion will finally do us in
The way they always warned us of.
If this is the final fire
What will become of us?
Are we just destined to be ashes and dust?
You would burn down the house
Before letting travelers through the door.
Even though it’s not our home,
But a land we all share.
You don’t care.
We could empathize that its your despair,
But your humanity disappeared.
There’s nothing there.
If this is the final fire
What will become of us?
Are we just destined to be ashes and dust?
This double speak won’t set you free.
After sacrificing our liberties
For your fear of everything.
Just because the world is different
Than how you perceive it to be
Doesn’t give you the right
To set fire to everything.
If this is the final fire
What will become of us?
Are we just destined to be ashes and dust?
Oh how you’d burn it all to dust
Combustion will finally do us in
The way they always warned us of.
