Burning Down The Money

Verse

Steel door closes, concrete floor gone cold

Money's calling through the speakers that never stop playing now

Ten thousand strangers, all of us on fire

Counting every hour like it's the only thing we need

I see a stranger, she don't ask for names

Just hands up high and an open flame

Pre-Chorus

The sky's about to turn into gold

We don't got tomorrow, this is all we own

Chorus

Burning down the money, burning it away tonight

Sparks on our shoulders where the light used to hide

Every rule that said we had to hold back now just falls apart

Burning down the money, burning it into my heart

We don't need tomorrow when every second's gold

This is what I was born for, nothing left to hold

Verse 2

Fireworks explode like a hundred hearts still beating

Every face looks foreign but somehow we all feel complete

Sirens in the distance, nobody runs away yet

This is all the freedom that the system ever met

Glass shatters over our shoulders, no regrets tonight

We're not leaving anything behind that don't light up right

Pre-Chorus

The sky's about to turn into gold

We don't got tomorrow, this is all we own

Chorus

Burning down the money, burning it away tonight

Sparks on our shoulders where the light used to hide

Every rule that said we had to hold back now just falls apart

Burning down the money, burning it into my heart

We don't need tomorrow when every second's gold

This is what I was born for, nothing left to hold

Bridge

Maybe someday the ashes will turn to something new

Something real instead of all this empty promise and glue

But tonight we're not thinking about that, we're just on fire

Tonight we're not fighting for a tomorrow

We're already alive, right now, in every single breath

So let it burn down, let it go, I'm ready to feel free

Chorus

Burning down the money, burning it away tonight

Sparks on our shoulders where the light used to hide

Every rule that said we had to hold back now just falls apart

Burning down the money, burning it into my heart

We don't need tomorrow when every second's gold

This is what I was born for, nothing left to hold
