lyrics

IT TAKES SOME PERSISTANCE
YOU’VE GOT TO BE WILLING
TO SACRIFICE LOVE AND VICE
AND GO MAKE A KILLING

SEARCHING FOR ANSWERS
LOOK IN THE MIRROR
IF TIME IS YOUR MONEY, YOU’D BETTER HURRY
THE END’S GETTING NEARER

YOU AND I ARE HERE FOR A REASON
THIS CAN’T BE ALL THERE IS TO BELIEVE IN

WHY IS THE WORLD ON FIRE?
WHY IS THE WORLD ON FIRE?

IT GOES WITHOUT SAYING
IT’S A GAME WE’RE ALL PLAYING
WINNER TAKES ALL
THE HARDER WE FALL THE MORE HEARTS WE’RE WEIGHING
EVERYTHING CHANGES
WE’VE ALL BECOME STRANGES
GHOSTS ON A SCREEN
JUDGMENTAL AND MEAN
IT’S LOVE THAT’S IN DANGER

YOU AND I ARE HERE FOR A REASON
THIS CAN’T BE ALL THERE IS TO BELIEVE IN

WHY IS THE WORLD ON FIRE?

SCOWER THE HEADLINES
HOPING FOR A LIFELINE
IT’S MEANT TO FOOL US BY DESIGN
CAN’T RUN FOR COVER
IF YOU CAN’T TRUST YOUR LOVER
IT’S ALL OVER BUT THE SHOUTING
I’M SHOUTING

WHY IS THE WORLD ON FIRE?

WE COULD HAVE IT ALL WRONG
AS WE’RE WRITING THIS SONG
CAUSE WE’VE KNOWN ALL ALONG
WHY THE WORLD’S ON FIRE
