How Does It Feel?
i can't imagine how bad you must feel, knowing the trouble you've caused
surely you must lie awake every night, dreaming of paradise lost
why can't you admit that you could be wrong?
sometimes i wonder if you understand what you've done
how does it feel to know you're the one
who started the fire that ended the world?
you sold out the country to your privileged friends, you told all them queers to repent
you started a war that'll never be won with a truth you had to invent
you've made your point. we all know you're tough
some say you're evil, but i think you're crying for love
how does it feel to know you're the one
who started the fire that ended the world?
i'd like to believe that we'll find a way
to survive even you and maybe forgive you some day
the glaciers are melting, the hurricanes rage, the fat lady waits in the wings
you could have saved us so many times, but you don't believe she can sing
you must be ashamed. you've wasted the gift
now the universe laughs as we waddle over the cliff
how does it feel to know you're the one
who started the fire that ended the world?
