Fire in the City

from The Stars & Ground by Bittersweet Machines

/

lyrics

fall in line
with the static that they pump into our minds
what is real?
all the manufactured things they make us feel

a fire in the city tonight
no one's getting out alive
even if you wanted to drive a million miles
there is no escaping this time
I tried
there's fire in the city tonight

no surprise
we all blissfully collapse into the light
it's who we are
entertain us and we'll make them superstars

a fire in the city tonight
no one's getting out alive
even if you wanted to drive a million miles
there is no escaping this time
I tried
there's fire in the city tonight

I can't turn away
i'm walking straight into the fire like a soldier

a fire in the city tonight
no one's getting out alive
even if you wanted to drive a million miles
there is no escaping this time
I tried
no one's getting out alive
even if you wanted to drive a million miles
there is no escaping this time
I tried
there's fire in the city tonight
fire in the city tonight
