Burn The School Down Lyrics

Burn The School Down

She said

I lost my best friend last week at school

He got shot

Someone thought that he was part of something that

He was not

Now I'm watching all the cheerleaders show just how sad they are

When my friend used to come 'round

They used to laugh and egg his car

Now I'm gonna do my part as a concerned citizen

I think we should burn the school down

And start again



Burn it

'Till there's nothing left

Burn it

Just like all the rest

Burn it

Clear up all this mess

Burn it down



Education for the nation

Kids retaliate on each station

Expectation, violation

Pressure increased in each generation

Burn the school down

Burn the school down

Burn the school down, she said

Burn the school down

Burn the school down

Burn the school down, start again



'Cause now what I want to know

Will the eyes inside the back of your mind let it go?

Now all I want to know

Will the eyes inside the back of your mind let it go?



She says

I want to feel more comfort in my own skin

But everyone around me makes me feel like

I'm worth less than them

Burn the school down

Burn the school down

Burn the school down, she said

Burn the school down

Burn the school down

Burn the school down, start again



Burn it

'Till there's nothing left

Burn it

Just like all the rest

Burn it

Clear up all this mess

Burn it down



'Cause now what I want to know

Will the eyes inside the back of your mind let it go?

Now all I want to know

Will the eyes inside the back of your mind let it go?

Now all I want to know

Will the eyes inside the back of your mind let it go?

Now all I want to know

Will the eyes inside the back of your mind let it go?



Burn the school down

Burn the school down

Burn the school down, right?

Burn the school down

Burn the school down

Burn the school down, right?

Burn the school down

Burn the school down

Burn the school down, right?

Burn the school down

Burn the school down

Burn the school down, right



Burn it

'Till there's nothing left

Burn it

Just like all the rest

Burn it

Clear up all this mess

Burn it down



'Cause now what I want to know

Will the eyes inside the back of your mind let it go?

Now all I want to know

Will the eyes inside the back of your mind let it go?

Now all I want to know

Will the eyes inside the back of your mind let it go?

Now all I want to know

Will the eyes inside the back of your mind let it go?

Now all I want to know

Now all I want to know

Now all I want to know

Now all I want to know
