1385
they’re burning
down my house again
(draft for a one chord wonder)
they’re burning down my
house again
they do it while I
sleep
I lie there like a
corpse
and dream
and in the dream I weep
they’re burning down my
house again
they do it every night
I dream the wish
and they upend it
with greed and hate and
lies
it’s me me me and all I
deserve
I just play around with
words
they’re telling me the
house is not on fire
but they’re burning
down my house again
I see it with my own
eyes
they’re raising up the
sea as well
they’re dialling up the
bile
they fuck this whole
wide world of ours
and I think what I’ll…
what I’ll…
I drive a car
I eat red meat
they burn the coal
just for me
I’m deep in my
hypocrisy
nevertheless I can see
this is what happens to
the meek
they’re burning down my
house again
they do it while I
sleep
I lie there like a
corpse
and dream
and dream
and dream
