Two individuals have agreed to meet up at an iconic government building with the intention of bringing it down, but while person A has made it there, person B is nowhere to be found. The building itself was evacuated when the bombs fell but still stands as a symbol of what used to be. The government (or what's left of it) are still active despite being in hiding and have sent hitmen to stop the two terrorists. Person A (already inside) has realised that they aren't making it out of the building alive and may only have seconds before they are caught and killed, so they decide to blow up the building whilst still inside, thereby destroying the monument to those who doomed everyone else for their own selfish reasons.
lyrics
You told me to meet you here but I can't find you anywhere
I'm looking for you and fearing the worst but I'm putting my trust in your plan
I brought the gear that you told me to get so we can blow this place sky high
And destroy what remains of the bastards who left the whole damn world to die
One last prank, you and me
We'll light it up for the world to see
The ones we saved will be fine but I'm not gonna make it out this time
So good luck my friend, assuming you're not already dead
I've done my best now the rest is up to you
It's up to you
We said we'd do this together but we might need a change of plan
Cause they sent an assassin to follow me here and I think he knows where I am
So I'm doing this one without you and I'm bringing this building down around me
At least this way you can make it out
I've never believed in god but I put all my faith in you
Cause you were the one who believed in me when I didn't think things through
And I know that I've been reckless but this time I'm in control
I'm doing this for us so here we go
One last prank, you and me
We'll light it up for the world to see
The ones we saved will be fine but I'm not gonna make it out this time
So good luck my friend, assuming you're not already dead
I've done my best now the rest is up to you
It's up to you
