The World Is On Fire |
| There’s an empty playground |
| With a bird on the swing |
| Has an eye for the departed |
| She loves the fallen king |
| The eyes that shine from the bedding |
| The neck that holds their head high |
| I think I’m spinning out of my heart |
| It’s such a fitting way to die |
| So much lives in the winter |
| It’s not as brutal as man |
| The hole keeps getting deeper |
| The ropes are easier to find |
| Well you don’t have to say you’re sorry |
| 'Cause we can never turn back |
| No time to say farewell |
| Before we bid too much blood |
| And as the world is on fire |
| I hear songs with no words |
| Well in the grand scheme of things |
| It’s just a dot in the universe |
| And as the world is on fire |
| I am deeply immersed |
| And in the grand scheme of things |
| It’s just a dot in the universe |
| We fell asleep under the ice |
| They took the past and stayed awake |
| You’ll find the truth in the past |
| And be burned at the stake |
| Gagged and bound by the prophets |
| And dragged kicking through the streets |
| The point in to the future |
| Now we truly are free |
| And as the world is on fire |
| I hear songs with no words |
| Well in the grand scheme of things |
| It’s just a dot in the universe |
| And as the world is on fire |
| I am deeply immersed |
| In the grand scheme of things |
| It’s just a dot in the universe |
| It’s just a dot in the universe |
