The world will shake you down
Come and spin your head around
They’ll whisper in your ear
Try to fill your heart with fear
This old city’s full of trouble
But somehow underneath the rubble
The days, they come and go
At night, the lights, they glow
They’ll kick you to the curb
Steal your money, steal your worth
And now my eyes are turning red
From all this passion in my head
So I turn the lights down just in case
And as the world comes burning down
Me and my love don’t hear a sound
