Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Trump's on the mic, says Kyiv needs new blood
Blames Zelenskyy for the diesel in the flood
Pump prices climbing back home in his town
Points overseas instead of looking down
Says the strikes on refineries made fuel run dry
Calls for a new president, waves the old one goodbye

[Chorus]
Diesel deal whispers, Washington to Moscow line
Twenty souls lost while the leaders dine
Glide bombs falling over Zaporizhzhia sky
Talks called productive, but tell me why

[Verse 2]
Russian glide bomb drops, the BBC confirms
Twenty people gone, the city shakes and burns
Al Jazeera's watching, calling talks "productive" too
While the rubble's smoking and the sirens cut through
Funny kind of progress, peace talk with a price
Numbers in a headline, somebody's sacrifice

[Chorus]
Diesel deal whispers, Washington to Moscow line
Twenty souls lost while the leaders dine
Glide bombs falling over Zaporizhzhia sky
Talks called productive, but tell me why

[Verse 3]
Zelensky fires back, calls the deal a disgrace
Trump and Putin shaking hands, oil smeared across the place
WSJ says "replace him," Post repeats the same tune
Guardian, CBS, echoing the same platform at noon
Le Monde's got the headline, Europe's watching close
A president's future traded like a diesel quote

[Verse 4]
Markets watching tickers, oil barrels spin
Analysts debating where the profits dip in
Senators on Twitter, drawing battle lines
Hashtags trending while the truth declines
Every outlet spinning their own version of the night
Still the diesel's burning, still nobody's right

[Verse 5]
Soldiers in the trenches don't care about the name
Just the shrapnel falling, just the frozen rain
Mothers light a candle for a son they'll never hold
While the diplomats negotiate in rooms gone cold
History will write it as a footnote in the page
But tonight it's just survival, tonight it's just rage

[Bridge]
Twenty dead in the papers, a number cold and flat
Behind the diesel deal there's a map, and lives on that
Leaders talk in rooms with marble and with light
While Zaporizhzhia counts its coffins through the night

[Bridge 2]
Maps get redrawn by men who've never bled
Numbers turn to silence when the names go unsaid
Still the world keeps spinning, still the cameras roll
Capturing the aftermath but never touching soul

[Outro]
October eleventh, the story's still in motion
Diesel, blame, and bombs — that's today's commotion
Tomorrow brings another headline, another trade
Another city counting what the war has made

[Chorus]
Diesel deal whispers, Washington to Moscow line
Twenty souls lost while the leaders dine
Glide bombs falling over Zaporizhzhia sky
Talks called productive, but tell me why
