We're setting
the fires to l

We're burning

With hope in o

We sing for ch

[Verse 2]
The lives our
buried sons ha
ve laid
Will cancel de

How could we j
ustify anythin

As long as we
blindly obey a

what they say
We'll have no
one to blame b
ut ourselves n

[Chorus]
We're setting
the fires to l

We're burning
it all to begi

With hope in o
ur hearts and
bricks in our
hands
We sing for ch

N.C.
We run on the fumes of injustice
N.C.
We'll never die with the fuel that you give us
Keep it coming

Keep running f

Your life arou

So turn your l

We're setting
