World's On Fire
Standing cold and scared on top of the hill Then came the moment when I lost my will I prayed for mercy, please don't take me away Voices in the distance, beautiful Somebody's calling beyond control Have you ever felt desperation? This whole world is filled with loss We will regret it when we sleep Promises never meant to keep When all of the shadows lead As a good man's hiding a dream Do they know that the world's on fire? Time has a price we can't afford An empty glass and an open door You get what you paid for in sweat And a voice says please don't forget Do they know that the world's on fire? Do they know that the time is now? Do they know that you gotta stand up, stand up Let your voice speak out Do they know that it's time? Caught in a maze you can't escape The flickering lights, and the colored lens SongtexteThe walls that we build just close in Until we decide to begin Are we distracted by the sun? The gleaming jewels, and the beating drums Is it going the distance we fear? Have you heard that we're already here? Do they know that the world's on fire? Do they know that the time is now? Do they know that you gotta stand up, stand up Let your voice speak out Do they know that the world's on fire? Do they know that the time is here? Do they know that you gotta stand up, stand up Let your voice be clear Do they know that it's time? Some will say we've gone too far We're on the edge and in too deep Some will say we're too far gone You can't erase the tragedy Aus Songtexte Mania
