You Must Not Look Away
The world's on fire
And so am I
Toss your passports in the ocean
And stop going through the motions
With reporters and camcorders
Detractors and supporters
Convalescent and adolescents
The world's burning
And I'm certain
Between my legs is churning
With agitation, it's concerning
You must not look away but you're trying anyway
This is what we're dying to say
I know I said I would, I'd stand with you if I could
But, I admire what you're trying to say
The world's on fire
A funeral pyre
Sweep up the bones and cellphones
Dont protest my arrest
The heart is evil
It is deceitful
Come up with a solution
Monetize the revolution
The world is smoke
The world is bile
Fulfilling their ambitions
With submissions
Shit kittens
You must not look away but you're trying anyway
This is what we're dying to say
I know I said I would, I'd stand with you if I could
But, I admire what you're trying to say
It turned once
It can turn back again
Are we in 1938? 1939
It turned once
Turn once
The world's a fire
It just took one night
Having sex on top of land mines
I took yours you can have mine
I was faking
Being shaken
When you said "Sorry bud, I'm taken"
You must be mistaken
Drop the atom bomb
On the piano bar
On insurgents cause it's urgent
Flush your eyes out with detergent
You must not look aways, just an hour look away
It's only just an hour away
The world is a mistake; the planes are painted "Bombs away"
If you squint, you can read what they say
You must not look away but you're trying anyway
This is what we're dying to say
You must not look away, for god's sake, you can not stay
Let's all dance the horrors away
It turned once
It can turn back again
Are we in 1936?
It turned once
Turn once
And so am I
Toss your passports in the ocean
And stop going through the motions
With reporters and camcorders
Detractors and supporters
Convalescent and adolescents
The world's burning
And I'm certain
Between my legs is churning
With agitation, it's concerning
You must not look away but you're trying anyway
This is what we're dying to say
I know I said I would, I'd stand with you if I could
But, I admire what you're trying to say
The world's on fire
A funeral pyre
Sweep up the bones and cellphones
Dont protest my arrest
The heart is evil
It is deceitful
Come up with a solution
Monetize the revolution
The world is smoke
The world is bile
Fulfilling their ambitions
With submissions
Shit kittens
You must not look away but you're trying anyway
This is what we're dying to say
I know I said I would, I'd stand with you if I could
But, I admire what you're trying to say
It turned once
It can turn back again
Are we in 1938? 1939
It turned once
Turn once
The world's a fire
It just took one night
Having sex on top of land mines
I took yours you can have mine

You must not look away, for god's sake, you can not stay
Let's all dance the horrors away
It turned once
It can turn back again
Are we in 1936?
It turned once
Turn once
