VERSE Down in amongst the streets tonight, books will burn, people laugh and cry in their turmoil Turmoil turns rejoiceful Shed your fears and lose your guilt, tonight we burn responsibility in the fire We ll watch the flames grow higher. And as I was standing by the edge, I could see the faces of those who left pissing themselves laughing and the flames grew higher Their mad eyes bulged, their flushed faces said The weak get crushed and the strong grow stronger. BRIDGE e|------------------------------------------------------| B|------------------------------------------------------| G|---------9--9--------10--10--------9--9--10--9--7-----| D|---7--7--------7--7----------7--7------------------10-| A|------------------------------------------------------| E|------------------------------------------------------| VERSE We feast on flesh and drink on blood, live by fear and despise love in our crisis What with todays high prices. Bring some paper and bring some wood and bring whats left of your love for the fire And we ll watch the flames grow higher. CHORUS
