"Burn it Down", from The Radium Girls debut album "From the Woodwork"
lyrics
VERSE 1
Young man, come closer, I pray that you hear me,
It's time you learned a bit of your history,
Be it loyalist or IRA.
Maybe then you'll share in our vision,
Not of faith, but simply conditioned,
To never, ever let go of our hate...
CHORUS
Woah, burn it down,
This is the reason why we came.
Woah, burn it down,
Find your solace in the flames
[WOAH'S]
VERSE 2
No one acts for fear of perdition,
No room for God, just man's own volition,
The cross is just an aging figurehead.
Oh the Troubles it seems are unending,
You grab some petrol, I'll grab a Browning,
And every Sunday mourn the mounting dead...
(A prayer for each departed friend)
CHORUS
Woah, burn it down,
This is the reason why we came.
Woah, burn it down,
Find your solace in the flames
[WOAH'S]
[BREAKDOWN]
CHORUS
Woah, burn it down,
This is the reason why we came.
Woah, burn it down,
Find your solace in the flames.
CHORUS
Woah, burn it down,
(Just burn it down, just burn it down...)
This is the reason why we blame.
(This is the reason)
Woah, burn it down,
(Just burn it down, just burn it down...)
Souls forever wreathed in flames
[WOAH'S]
(It's not too late, It's not too late...)
