the world is on fire
it's blazing and burning and dying
watching, waiting, all we can do
sitting by a window, trying not to cry
trying not to let the flood loose
the world is flooding already
it's all one big show, a joke
some prank being played, i swear
the words that were written
read between the lines
see the cruelty, see the horror
the truth of it all, the lies
our world is doomed, the one we know
held in the palm of a king
the king of catastrophes words can't say
he'll sit on his throne of bones
prop his feet on the blood he'll spill
he'll relish in the power, the feeling
watching his fire burn around him
it's pouring today
as if in some attempt to stop it
nothing will stop it, not now
the sky just screams and wails
and sobs with all of us
all who haven't been poisoned by him
in the land of the fucking free
