Verse 1: Ali Tabatabaee

I broke down on a Japanese street

Words unsaid, they scar so deep

Bullshit, Palahniuk, both make me choke

Too much JD, too much coke

She says speed up, I wanna go faster

She holds on, I outlast her

Build it up, but what does that matter?

We can build it up, but we always watch it shatter


[Chorus: Ali Tabatabaee]

Get up, get up, the house is on fire

Get up, get up, I want to get higher

Get up, get up, you motherfucking liar

You make me feel alone


[Verse 2: Ali Tabatabaee]

I burned out in Shibuya station

Lost all my friends, hazard occupation

Manic Compression like quicksand slip

Ate too many mushrooms, I'm gonna be sick

She says slow down, you're going through the motions

I start to crash like a plane in the ocean

Build it up, but what does that matter?

When the shit goes down, we all fucking scatter


[Chorus: Ali Tabatabaee]

Get up, get up, the house is on fire

Get up, get up, I want to get higher

Get up, get up, you motherfucking liar

You make me feel alone

Get up, get up, the house is on fire

Get up, get up, I want to get higher

Get up, get up, you motherfucking liar

You make me feel alone

Post-Chorus: Justin Mauriello

Never said I wanted to try

Never said I wanted to live this lie

All you said was goodbye

All I ever said was to get me out of here


[Pre-Chorus: Ali Tabatabaee]

I focus on the flame (Set it off)

Wasted, what a shame (Set it off)

Focus on the flame (Set it off)

We were once the same

Set it off


[Chorus: Ali Tabatabaee]

Get up, get up, the house is on fire

Get up, get up, I want to get higher

Get up, get up, you motherfucking liar

You make me feel alone

Post-Chorus: Justin Mauriello

Never said I wanted to try

Never said I wanted to live this lie

All you said was goodbye

All I ever said was to get me out of here


[Chorus: Ali Tabatabaee]

Get up, get up, the house is on fire

Get up, get up, I want to get higher

Get up, get up, you motherfucking liar

You make me feel alone
