You Me At Six - Our House (The Mess We Made) lyrics
[You Me At Six - Our House The Mess We Made lyrics]
I look around me and everyone’s a no show
I made the call, but people saw the smoke
No, we haven’t got time to be putting
Out fires that we didn’t start
You look light
But I know you have a heavy heart
They say: "Tell me
Why should I care about the people
That I have n-never met?
They don’t have my back
So answer: why should I have any of theirs?"
Because our house is on fire
Our house is on fire
Our house is on fire and no one cares
'Cause our house is on fire
Prophets with problems
Smart mouths don’t wanna solve them
Nobody can tell me
That we got a plan B worth hearing
When I dream of outer space
(Dream of outer space)
I wonder what they’re thinking
When they look down and see
(Look down and see)
That the Earth is bleeding
The kids have taken the streets
They ain’t missing a beat
They want their futures back
When the leaders can’t lead
We all look to a Swede
Who speaks the most sense to me
Maybe, finally it's time for us
To draw a line in the mess we made
Because our house is on fire
Our house is on fire (Nobody knows)
Our house is on fire and no one cares
'Cause our house is on fire (Nobody knows)
Our house is on fire
Our house is on fire (Nobody knows)
Our house is on fire and no one cares
'Cause our house is on fire
Why should we care about people
We have never met?
Why should we care about people
We have never met?
Why should we care about people
We will never meet?
Because the kids have taken the streets
They ain’t missing a beat
They want their futures back
So don’t go getting cold feet
Now’s not the time to sleep
Now’s not the time to sleep
Because our house is on fire (Nobody knows)
Our house is on fire (Nobody knows)
Our house is on fire and no one cares
'Cause our house is on fire
Our house is on fire (Nobody knows)
Our house is on fire (Nobody knows)
Our house is on fire and no one cares
'Cause our house is on fire (Nobody knows)
I made the call, but people saw the smoke
No, we haven’t got time to be putting
Out fires that we didn’t start
You look light
But I know you have a heavy heart
They say: "Tell me
Why should I care about the people
That I have n-never met?
They don’t have my back
So answer: why should I have any of theirs?"
Because our house is on fire
Our house is on fire
Our house is on fire and no one cares
'Cause our house is on fire
Prophets with problems
Smart mouths don’t wanna solve them
Nobody can tell me
That we got a plan B worth hearing
When I dream of outer space
(Dream of outer space)
I wonder what they’re thinking
When they look down and see
(Look down and see)
That the Earth is bleeding
The kids have taken the streets
They ain’t missing a beat
They want their futures back
When the leaders can’t lead
We all look to a Swede
Who speaks the most sense to me
Maybe, finally it's time for us
To draw a line in the mess we made
Because our house is on fire
Our house is on fire (Nobody knows)
Our house is on fire and no one cares
'Cause our house is on fire (Nobody knows)
Our house is on fire
Our house is on fire (Nobody knows)
Our house is on fire and no one cares
'Cause our house is on fire
Why should we care about people
We have never met?
Why should we care about people
We have never met?
Why should we care about people
We will never meet?
Because the kids have taken the streets
They ain’t missing a beat
They want their futures back
So don’t go getting cold feet
Now’s not the time to sleep
Now’s not the time to sleep
Because our house is on fire (Nobody knows)
Our house is on fire (Nobody knows)
Our house is on fire and no one cares
'Cause our house is on fire
Our house is on fire (Nobody knows)
Our house is on fire (Nobody knows)
Our house is on fire and no one cares
'Cause our house is on fire (Nobody knows)
