Good King Friday – Burning Down

Good King Friday – Burning Down Lyrics

Artist: Good King Friday
Song: Burning Down

I put my boy to bed tonight
We read stories and sing songs
We talked about this world of ours
And watched his globe spin round

While he slept
A storm brewed
Lighting struck up the street
I called out and heard the news

As a house blazed to the ground
They’ve outsourced 911 today
India’s got a new crown
While my neighbor’s burning down

And the rains, they keep pouring in
If I don’t burn I’ll drown
Nobody wants to listen anymore
But we’re all adept at crying

Our hate threatens to bury us
We scurry to our dying
We owe so much to others
The deaths we can’t forget

Old songs mean something new now
Maybe we ain’t seen nothing yet
They’ve outsourced 911 today
India’s got a new crown

While my country’s burning down
And the rains, they keep on pouring in
If I don’t burn I’ll drown
We are trapped down in a mine

Don’t think of it as ours
We would rather cough and sneer
Than try to find a way out
They’ve outsourced 911 today

India’s got a new crown
While my world is burning down
And the rains, they keep on pouring in
If I don’t burn I’ll drown

If I don’t burn I’ll drown
