Our House (The Mess We Made)

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 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 even 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 thing
They want their futures back
When the leaders can’t lead, we all look to a swede
Who speaks most sense to me
Maybe finally it's a time for us to draw a line
In the mess we made
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
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
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
That makes the most sense to me
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
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
