Counting 54321... - Thursday


Thursday
"counting 54321"

54321 let's start a fire.
Burn this town from inside out.
Till no one's left alive.
And you can't feel the rhythm of your steps when you hit the street.
The city seems so far away from here
When you're counting every step.

5432 what are you waiting for?
The train is catching up
Keep on running don't look back.
'cause it's 10987 everybody's coming to burn this city
Burn this city down tonight.
Leave it all behind.

All his life he lived in the same house.
Same white fence surrounding him he swore he would get out.
But he can't cause his foot got caught in between the rails.
And all his friends were up ahead
They can't hear him yelling yelling for some help.
And it's much too late to call the doctor now.
This town is full of sympathies; we're drowning in it all.

5432 what are you waiting for?
The train is catching up
Keep on running don't look back.
Cause it's 10987 everybody's coming to burn this city
Burn this city down tonight.
Leave it all behind.

Is that the sound of the gate coming down?
No flashing lights no warning?
When we press our ears to the ground we feel the shake.
But it's under the skin so we wilt like violets.
Can't get up to put the petals in their place.

5432 what are you waiting for?
Burn this city burn this city tonight.
