When In Rome
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
When it all burns down
What you gonna do
When it all burns down
Where you gonna go
When it all burns down
How far you gonna run
When it all burns down
Never thought it'd get down to this
Never thought it'd get down to this
Deep and sound asleep
I never saw the ledge Deep and sound asleep
Couldn't smell the smoke
Deep and sound asleep
Didn't feel the flames
Deep and sound asleep
We were dreaming while the city burned
We were dreaming while the city burned
Now it's all burned down
Who can you trust
Now it's all burned down
How come your still alive
Now it's all burned down
Where can you sleep tonight
Now it's all burned down
Got one bullet left
And your times run out
Better take that last shot
Better make it count
Got one bullet left
And your times run out
Better take that last shot
Better make it count
