Burn It Down Slow

(hmmm, yeah, let it cool)

We keep on digging up the past

Building fires we know can't last

The sky is heavy,

the air is thin

Tell me where do we begin?

Stop burning stuff, let the green grass grow

Stop burning stuff, let the cool winds blow

Turn down the heat,

let the oceans clear

We need a future here

(we need it now)

The coal in the ground,

the oil in the clay

We've got to find a better way

Harness the wind, catch the solar light

Make the future clean and bright

Stop burning stuff, let the green grass grow

Stop burning stuff, let the cool winds blow

Turn down the heat,

let the oceans clear

We need a future here

Just let it cool

Stop burning stuff (let it cool,

yeah)
