Lyrics

Down In Flames

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.

Christians-- we're all afraid of fire.

We prefer to suck on pacifiers.

Baby pacifists, we're throwing fits.

We don't shake hands, we shake our fists.

We're cannibals.

We watch our brothers fall.

We eat our own, the bones and all.

Finally fell asleep on the plane

to wake to see we're going down in flames.

We're going down, down, down in flames.

We're gonna drown, drown, drown insane.

We see the problem and the risk,

but nothing's solved.

We just say, "Tisk, tisk, tisk,"

and, "Shame, shame, shame."

Finally fell asleep on the plane

to wake to see we're going down in flames.

Let's go!

Christians-- we mourn, the thorn is stuck

in the side of the body watch it self-destruct.

The enemy is much ignored

when we fight this Christian civil war.

We're cannibals.

We watch our brothers fall.

We eat our own, the bones and all.

Finally fell asleep on the plane

to wake to see we're going down in flames.

We're going down, down, down in flames.

We're gonna drown, drown, drown insane.

We see the problem and the risk,

but nothing's solved.

We just say, "Tisk, tisk, tisk,"

and, "Shame, shame, shame."

Finally fell asleep on the plane

to wake to see we're going down in flames.

Na na na na, na na na na.

Na na na na, na na na na.

Na na na na, na na na na.

Na na na na, na na na na.

Na na na na, na na na na.

Na na na na, na na na na.

Na na na na, na na na na.

Bana na na na, na na na

Let me pause to clarify

('cause I'm sure you're asking, "Why?").

I stand before you and proudly claim

to belong to what this song complains.

I'm part of the problem,

I confess,

But I gotta get this off my chest.

Let's extinguish the anguish

for which we're to blame,

and save the world

from going down in flames.
