World On Fire Song Lyrics

Hearts are worn in these dark ages

You're not alone in this story's pages

Night has fallen amongst the living and the dying

And I try to hold it in, yeah I try to hold it in

It's more than I can handle

I watch the heavens and I find a calling

Something I can do to change this moment

Stay close to me while the sky is falling

Don't wanna be left alone, don't wanna be alone

Hearts break, hearts mend

Visions clash, planes crash

Saving souls, still the cold

We part the veil on Archille's sun

Stray from the straight line on this short run

The more we take, the less we become

A fortune of one that means less for some

Are you a music master?

In what decade did the group "Pink Floyd" make their debut?

Adia I do believe I failed you Adia I know I

I will be the answer at the end of the

On the hills of fire the darkest hour I was dreaming

Unravel me A distant cord On the outside is forgotten A constant need To

Blue, songs are like tattoos You know I've been to sea

There are two of us talking in circles and one of

If I had the chance, love, I would not hesitate... To

Love has taken me for a fool Gotten out in time

You've been gone for so long, all that you know

Heaven bent to take my hand And lead me through the

Soaks my skin - through to the bone Pain is nothing

All the fear has left me now I'm not frightened anymore It's

Hey your glass is empty it's a hell of a long

Child walks down to the river's edge And looks out as

I remember the nights I watched as you lay sleeping Your

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 I’ll try to hold it in, yeah, I’ll try to hold it in

The world is on fire
It’s more than I can handle
I’ll tap into the water
Try and bring my share
Try to bring more
More than I can handle
Bring it to the table
Bring what I am able

I watch the Heavens but I find no calling
Something I can do to change what’s coming
Stay close to me while the sky is falling
I don’t wanna be left alone, don’t want to be alone

The world is on fire
It’s more than I can handle
I’ll tap into the water
Try and bring my share
Try to bring more
More than I can handle
Bring it to the table
Bring what I am able

Hearts break, hearts mend, love still hurts
Visions clash, planes crash
Still there’s talk of saving souls
Still the cold is 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

The world is on fire
It’s more than I can handle
I’ll tap into the water
Try and bring my share
Try to bring more
More than I can handle
Bring it to the table
Bring what I am able

The world is on fire
It’s more than I can handle
I’ll tap into the water
Try and bring my share
Try to bring more
More than 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 this story's pages
The light has fallen amongst the living and the dying
And I'll try to hold it in, yeah, I'll try to hold it in

The world's on fire, it's more than I can handle
Tap into the water, try to bring my share
Try to bring more, more than I can handle
Bring it to the table, bring what I am able

I watch the heavens but I find no calling
Something I can do to change what's coming
Stay close to me while the sky is falling
I don't wanna be left alone, don't wanna be alone

The world's on fire, it's more than I can handle
Tap into the water, try to bring my share
Try to bring more, more than I can handle
Bring it to the table, bring what I am able

Hearts break, hearts mend
Love still hurts
Visions clash, planes crash
Still there's talk of
Saving souls, still the cold
Is 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

The world's on fire, it's more than I can handle
Tap into the water, try to bring my share
Try to bring more, more than I can handle
Bring it to the table, bring what I am able
The world's on fire, it's more than I can handle
Tap into the water, try to bring my share
Try to bring more, more than I can handle
Bring it to the table, bring what I am able
