lyrics
The world is on fire
You've been looking for a Smith & Wesson
Ever since you came of age
"Every boy needs a decent weapon"
Something friendly with a heavy gauge
You still dream of those summer vacations
Where you'd find yourselves on country roads
Trying to wash away those petty complications
And burning on the river.
Hold on to me, hold on tonight
Now every day presents a different struggle
It's the same monster with a different face
"they're coming into your city
to take your daughters and to take your place"
Who can keep us when we have all the answers?
Who can keep us when we make the chains?
Don't they know we would die a martyr?
Burning on the river.
Hold on to me, hold on tonight
Hold on to morning, hold on tonight
'cause fascism will promise you the world but
The world is on fire
They will shoot us when we cross the bridges
They will drown us in our own blood
They will fight us in the markets and courtyards
They will summon up a flood of excuses
To cast us asunder, of reasons why we can't exist
But we are greater than the world we plunder
Burning on the river.
Hold on to me, hold on tonight
Hold on to morning, hold on tonight
You've been looking for a Smith & Wesson
Ever since you came of age
"Every boy needs a decent weapon"
Something friendly with a heavy gauge
You still dream of those summer vacations
Where you'd find yourselves on country roads
Trying to wash away those petty complications
And burning on the river.
Hold on to me, hold on tonight
Now every day presents a different struggle
It's the same monster with a different face
"they're coming into your city
to take your daughters and to take your place"
Who can keep us when we have all the answers?
Who can keep us when we make the chains?
Don't they know we would die a martyr?
Burning on the river.
Hold on to me, hold on tonight
Hold on to morning, hold on tonight
'cause fascism will promise you the world but
The world is on fire
They will shoot us when we cross the bridges
They will drown us in our own blood
They will fight us in the markets and courtyards
They will summon up a flood of excuses
To cast us asunder, of reasons why we can't exist
But we are greater than the world we plunder
Burning on the river.
Hold on to me, hold on tonight
Hold on to morning, hold on tonight
