Today I moved out of a burning building I packed the ashes and took em' with me I stepped outside and called my mom I said I'm alright but my shoes are gone And the pavement's hot but it feels like velvet My bloody feet on the ground, so hell-ish It's heaven here in Hollywood Doin' everything except for good On my knees so I can pretend to pray Smoke in my lungs and dirt in my mouth I don't give a fuck if the city burns down Let it burn down La, la, la la, la, la la, la, la La, la, la la, la, la la, la, la I heard LA is a pretty cool town To get in the ocean and let yourself drown Let it burn down La, la, la la, la, la la, la, la La, la, la la, la, la la, la, la I got brand new keys to put up my nose With a brand new closet to keep my bones in I wash the dirt right out my mouth But unpack the ashes on my brand new couch On my knees so I can pretend to pray Smoke in my lungs and dirt in my mouth I don't give a fuck if the city burns down Let it burn down La, la, la la, la, la la, la, la La, la, la la, la, la la, la, la I heard LA is a pretty cool town To get in the ocean and let yourself drown Let it burn down La, la, la la, la, la la, la, la La, la, la la, la, la la, la, la Wonder if I should've stayed home Back in the cold I never listened when they said to me Ah! You'll be alone You'll be alone You'll be alone Honestly I should've stayed home Back in the cold Back with my mom What a tragedy it is to grow up The less I know I guess I should've stayed
