House of the Rising Sun

[Intro] Hmm ah, hmmm ah… Rising… rising… [Verse 1] There’s a house down in the flashing lights They call it Rising Sun, where the lost ones fight Steel towers and broken promises Swallowing young souls in the endless night I was young and reckless chasing empty thrill Let the city gambler bend me to his will Now the warnings scream my name every night And the house keeps claiming every life [Pre-Chorus] If I had listened to what Mama said… I’d still be somewhere safe instead… [Chorus] Ooh-ooh, whoa-oh Rising Sun, Rising Sun Hey-hey-hey, na-na-na It’s gonna ruin us all Yeah-yeah-yeah, we’re going down House of the Rising Sun Oh-oh-oh, let it burn We’re rising… we’re rising… we’re all rising up! Rising! Rising! Rising Sun! Burn it! Burn it! Burn it down! [Verse 2] My mother patches up these torn old jeans While my lover drowns his pain in synthetic scenes He pulls me close and swears we’ll break it all tonight But the house just smiles and dims another light I gave my future for a shining trap Now I move to the rhythm of this motorik wrath The low end pounds like guilt inside my chest And the Rising Sun just pulls me in again [Pre-Chorus] If I had listened… I wouldn’t be this lost inside the system… [Chorus] Ooh-ooh, whoa-oh Rising Sun, Rising Sun Hey-hey-hey, na-na-na It’s gonna ruin us all Yeah-yeah-yeah, we’re going down House of the Rising Sun Oh-oh-oh, let it burn We’re rising… we’re rising… we’re all rising up! Rising! Rising! Rising Sun! Burn it! Burn it! Burn it down! [Bridge] This city’s a rigged game from the very start… Every promise is a bet that tears you apart… We keep rolling the dice in pouring rain… But the house always wins… again… again… We’re burning… we’re burning… we’re burning it down! [Final Chorus] Ooh-ooh, whoa-oh Rising Sun, Rising Sun Hey-hey-hey, na-na-na It’s gonna ruin us all Yeah-yeah-yeah, we’re going down House of the Rising Sun Oh-oh-oh, let it burn We’re rising… we’re rising… we’re all rising up! Rising! Rising! Rising Sun! Burn it! Burn it! Burn it down! [Outro] Hmm ah… hmmm ah… Rising… rising…
