Stay up all night and sleep all day,
We were smart kids with too much to say.
And we were so, so sure that they were missing out,
They're the ones who were missing out, and
We were elemental, talked down to bare essentials,
Who knew we'd get so far?
Cause our days were numbered by nights on too many rooftops.
They said we'd burn so bright.
We'd burn this city and go.
Play it again,(our Games of Love and Lust)
There's no such thing (no there's never too much).
And we were so, so sure, No we never had a doubt.
We were counting down days to getting out.
We were elemental, talked down to bare essentials.
Who knew we'd get so far?(Who knew we'd get so far?)
Cause our days were numbered by nights on too many rooftops.
They said we're wasting our lives,
Oh at least we know, that if we die - we lived with passion.
They said we'd burn so bright.
We'd burn this city and go.
Pack our bags and lets get away - they're catching on to us.
Pack our bags and lets get away - they're catching on to us.
Pack our bags and get away - they're catching on to us.
Pack our bags and get away - they're catching on to us.
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh [4x]
Cause our days were numbered by nights on too many rooftops.
They said we're wasting our lives,
Oh at least we know, that if we die - we lived with passion.
They said we'd burn so bright.
We'd burn this city, and go.
(Our days were numbered by nights on too many rooftops)
Burn this city and go
(They said we're wasting our lives)
and oh, we'd burn this city and go.
(Oh at least we know, that if we die -
Yeah wed burn this city and go
(we lived with passion - They said we'd burn so bright)
Oh-oh-oh!
(Our days were numbered by nights on too many rooftops)
(They said we're wasting our lives)
(Oh at least we know, that if we die)
(we lived with passion - They said we'd burn so bright)
Oh-oh-oh!

Review about Burn This City weirddd | Reviewer: Rebecca | 4/9/2008
I'm in history class right now an we're talking about the Civil war when Sherman from the North captures Atlanta and basically burns it down. This song is definatly not about that but I just thought it was kind of ironic.
I use to love this song. Now when I hear it, all it does is bring back painful memories of my dead boyfriend.... He jumped of a bridge cause we got in a fight.... I LOVE YOU DEVIN! I'M SO SORRY!
its a pretty wickd song | Reviewer: Anonymous | 10/24/2007
well, first of all, i'd like to say this is a pretty good review. just that your missing some words. i was listening to it while looking. nice review anyways though
Listen to a very similar song by Yellowcard. Read the lyrics and listen. Both are alike but I prefer this. Feel free to disagree but I see a good group of bands to go on tour together. Just a thought. COMMENTS?
