React, the castle's burning, Madam Marchioness
_____
Lives in her bubble as she likes, a cut-rate gilded cage
_____
Blinded 'cause it glitters, says the earth makes you dirty
_____
Clings more to her mask than to her life
_____
The same from New York to Paris
_____
Feels nothing, analyzes, cultivates greed
_____
While the world races to its ruin
_____
Madam Marchioness merely thinks about it
_____
Way too focused on herself
_____
Too busy showing off her life
_____
And wondering what people would think of her
_____
Madam Marchioness, life is rosy
_____
As long as her mirror says she's beautiful
_____
So she couldn't care less about others, the times
_____
The world can die around her
_____
The castle's burning, I know it's crazy
_____
For once, please, wake up
_____
Flames have already attacked the crowds
_____
Look around you, Madam Marchioness
_____
The castle's burning, the air is full of sulfur
_____
Are there any emergency exits left
_____
React before everything collapses
_____
Time is running out, Madam Marchioness
_____
React, the castle's burning, Madam Marchioness
React, the castle's burning
_____
Madam Marchioness, grand concepts galvanize
_____
But they never cross the line
_____
She thinks she's enlightened 'cause she thinks life is the Matrix
_____
Heart that judges, killing words
_____
Asking her for help feels like attacking her
_____
She'd like to appear wiser
_____
But her urge to dominate betrays her
_____
Madam Marchioness couldn't care less
_____
Focused on her evening dinner
_____
Between her finest jewels and her pretty silk gowns
_____
She has to shine, shine, shine like a thousand flames
_____
So only she's seen, that goes without saying
_____
Unaware or lively, vile and vicious
_____
Wants to give nothing but receive everything
_____
The castle's burning, I know it's crazy
_____
For once, please, wake up
_____
Flames have already attacked the crowds
_____
Look around you, Madam Marchioness
_____
The castle's burning, the air is full of sulfur
_____
Are there any emergency exits left
_____
React before everything collapses
_____
Time is running out, Madam Marchioness
_____
React, the castle's burning, Madam Marchioness
_____
React, the castle's burning
_____
Madam Marchioness, the virtual world is her paradise
_____
Let's be pragmatic, it won't fix anything once Earth has no shelter
_____
Glass bubble and strange indifference
_____
Clinging to her blinkers and her schemes
_____
War in a corner of the screen
_____
Unless it becomes attractive
_____
Madam Marchioness looks down on all that
_____
She's lost her wool sweater
_____
She endorses war as long as it's far away
_____
Can't imagine it bursting her glass bubble
_____
Madam Marchioness is always right
_____
And she'll have the means to shut you up
_____
And if everybody defends her
_____
It's just because she is modern society
_____
The castle's burning, I know it's crazy
_____
For once, please, wake up
_____
Flames have already attacked the crowds
_____
Look around you, Madam Marchioness
_____
The castle's burning, the air is full of sulfur
_____
Are there still any emergency exits left
_____
React before everything collapses
_____
Time is running out, Madam Marchioness
_____
React, the castle's burning, Madam Marchioness
