Lyrics
While The World Burns
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.
Some people say the end is near
And some say that it's already here
But I won't feel the slightest fear
If my arms are full of you
Maybe we will suffocate
In poison fumes and clouds of hate
But I don't care about my fate
If my arms are full of you
I just want to hold you while the world burns
Let it burn, burn, burn
Crushed by the oceans mighty waves
Or ripped apart by robotic slaves
I won't mind the crowded graves
If my arms are full of you
Burned alive by bitter ash
Or a supernovas blinding flash
I won't feel that biting lash
If my arms are full of you
I just want to hold you while the world burns
Let it burn, burn, burn
The roof, the roof, the roof is on fire
I just want to hold you while the world burns
