World On Fire
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
The worlds on fire its more then I can handle
Ill tap into the water try and bring my share
Try to bring more, more then I can handle
Bring it to the table
Bring what I am able
Hearts are worn in these dark ages
You're not alone in these stories pages
The light has fallen amongst the living and the dying
And Ill try to hold it in
Yeah Ill try to hold it in
Chorus
I watch the heavens but I find no calling
Something I can do to change whats coming
Stay close to me while the skys falling
I don't wanna be left alone don't wanna be alone
Chorus
Hearts break hearts mend love still hurts
Visions clash planes crash still theres talk of
saving souls still colds closing in on us
We part the veil on our killer sun
Stray from the straight line on this short run
The more we take the less we become
The fortune of one man means less for some
Chorus
