Some men just want to watch the world burn

if all we do is create
then why even hesitate
if worse comes to worst
just snuff it out with a coat of paint

the skyscrapers razing in the skyline
hold it down and fill it
don’t forget we started out with only clay

if all you do is destroy
then get a new hobby
I won’t be a party to ashes and flame
what’s left when everything’s dead
just you and your hate

take my tears and that’s not merely all

if all you do is misunderstand
then let me try my best to change that
the saddest world of all begins
where you and only you can look within
deep down there is no peace at all

take my pity and use it against me
take my sanity and that’s not nearly all
