lyrics

Some people like to see themselves in a better place
Some people live to see themselves fading away
Some people want to know the truth, others prefer the lie
Some people can't accept the fact that some people die

Some people run for president, those people are dead
Some people run for senator and make money instead
Some people think that politics ain't none of my concern
Some people just want to watch the world burn
Let it burn

So scratch my skin
And peel back my eyelids
Count my sins
You'll pay for what I did

Some people wear their discomfort like a new favorite shirt
Some people don't know anything outside of getting hurt
Some people take their misery and wed it like a bride
They don their suits of armor and rot from the inside

Some people try to live their lives as honest as they could
Some people lie to full extent, made up of fire and wood
Some people don't have a motive nor memory to discern
These people exist solely to watch the world burn

So scratch my skin
And peel back my eyelids
Count my sins
You'll pay for what I did

You will, oh you will

So scratch my skin
And peel back my eyelids
Count my sins
You'll pay for what I did

As the world burns
As the world burns down
