Burn This House Down

Let the winds turn this morning
Let them beat upon the rising sun
Let the clouds howl above us
Let the tempest waken everyone

"Inert, I'll float in stagnant pools
Like Old King Log."

Let the Earth shake this midday
Let it rupture what was fixed in place
Let the quakes rage beneath us
Let the tremors loose the rooted space

"Let all the poisons that lurk in the mud
Hatch out."

All's left to do is got to fight this fever
Smile as your lies start to burn
Right through my skin
Come, tear it down!

Let the fires come this sundown
Let them feast upon beseeching hands
Let the flames light down on us
Let the burning purify these lands

"Inert, I'll float in stagnant pools
Like Old King Log."

Let the rains come this midnight
Let them pound upon what might remain
Let the floods rise around us
Let the waters wash away the stain

"Let all the poisons that lurk in the mud
Hatch out."

All's left to do is got to fight this fever
Smile as your lies start to burn
Right through my skin
Come, tear it down!
All's left to do is got to burn this house down
Smile as your lies will define
The state we're in
Come, tear it down!

All's left to do is got to fight this fever
Smile as your lies start to burn
Right through my skin
Come, tear it down!
All's left to do is got to burn this house down
Smile as your lies will define
The state we're in
Come, tear it down!

All's left to do is got to fight this fever
Smile as your lies start to burn
Right through my skin
Come, tear it down!
All's left to do is got to burn this house down
Smile as your lies will define
The state we're in
Come, tear it down!
