City’s Burning

[lyrics from demo, subject to change]

[Verse 1]
It’s like a jungle in this heatwave
Sweat rolls down the dirty streets
A hunchback lady asked me today “why did you send your son away?"
And I tell her, I always tell her “this ain’t no place for a kid to be” (“This ain’t no place for a kid to be")

[Chorus]
City’s burning, always burning
The city’s always burning
City’s burning, always burning
City’s always burning

[Verse 2]
“Would you like white wine on ice?" The lady said as my eyes saw the TV Without sound, There were bloody children covering the ground
But no one cares, no one sees
Some unknown address is talking to me
And I tell her, I try to tell hеr
“This ain’t no place for a kid to be" (“This ain’t no place for a kid to bе")

[Chorus]
City’s burning, always burning
The city’s always burning
City’s burning, always burning
City’s always burning
City’s burning
And to my son, I leave this world: a bomb of heat, this killing place
It’s all I have to give to you
Put out the fire, search for the truth

[Outro]
City’s burning, always burning
The city’s always burning [?]
City’s burning, always burning [?]
City’s always burning
City’s burning
