Something’s burning in the building
But I don’t smell anything
Sirens blasting, constant ringing
As people run and scream

Grabbed my things as fast as I could
I didn’t know what to bring
Went for sentimental value
So I left without a thing

A ray of sunshine through the smoke
Sends me blasting through the hall
I see my escape
And I take it, at least for one more day

A grey cloud emerges from a window
I don’t really give a shit
People stop to take a picture
To show their friends I guess

Some arms are crying out for help
A hero runs back in again
Could’ve been me
But I don’t want to be in their memories

My sweat is thick, my face is dirty
But what do I even care?
I caught some life in all that chaos
I’m so glad I was there
To lift my spirits up from pain
Sometimes you need something insane
To show the use
Of all the things you’ve got to lose
