Burn it Down (Explicit)

post-punk, all female vocals, aggressive, marching drumbeat, screeching, distorted guitars

[Verse 1]
All it takes is one match
To start a revolution
One single spark
And it all goes up in flames
Feed us your lies
Tell us how to act
Force us to dress like dolls
And see what you create

[Pre-Chorus]
You want clean?
We’ll give you blood.
You want order?
We'll give you chaos
You want peace?
We’ll bring the fucking war
Your world is fragile
Hold on to your crown
Run along now, little man
We're burning this motherfucker down

[Chorus]
BURN IT DOWN (Revolution knows no bounds)
BURN IT DOWN! (Our voices will never be drowned)
BURN IT DOWN! (The masses will never be bound)
BURN IT DOWN! (All the way to the fucking GROUND!)

[Verse 2]
[Female voice] Your pray to God, but she turned her back
[Female voice]  You build your walls, watch them crack
[Female voice] You tax our existence, we pay with rage
[Female voice]  You take our identities, we rewrite the page

[Female voice]  We wear our clothes for us not you
[Male voice] We play our music loud and true
[Female voice] We kiss the lips of those we dream
[Male voice] We fuck the bodies that make us SCREAM!

[Bridge]
“You want us to shut up? You better kill the mic.
You want us to behave? You better kill the fight.
You want us to disappear?
You better kill the light
'cause we are the people
And we have the might

[Instrumental breakdown]

[Chorus]
BURN IT DOWN! (For every voice they tried to silence!)
BURN IT DOWN! (For those falling victim to violence!)
BURN IT DOWN! (For the girls, the gays, the boys, the theys!)
BURN IT DOWN! (’Cause revolution never obeys!)

[Final Verse]
This ain’t a phase, this ain’t a prayer—
This is a war cry cutting through air.
We won't kneel and we won’t repent—
We won't bow down, we won't relent

[Final Chorus]
BURN IT DOWN! BURN IT DOWN!
BURN IT DOWN! BURN IT DOWN!
BURN IT DOWN! BURN IT DOWN!
BURN IT DOWN! BURN IT DOWN!
BURN IT—

[Final Chorus – Screamed Until the Mic Dies]
BURN IT DOWN! 
BURN IT DOWN!
BURN IT DOWN! 
BURN IT DOWN!
BURN IT DOWN!
BURN IT DOWN! 
BURN IT DOWN!
Watch us light the match
And smile while you turn to ash.

[Outro]
"So… what do we build in the ashes?”
