(This world is on fire)
(This world is on fire)

This world is on fire
We're restless and we're tired
Is there some place other than this
Maybe somewhere higher
I don't hear no choir
All I see are liars
Is there some place other than this
Maybe somewhere higher

It's hard to make it in a world wasted
All this hatred, I'm impatient
All these changes, different places
Lookin' sacred, got the aces (got the aces)
Lot of faces, look what we're facin'
Across a nation who can make it
Yeah, we're racin', I can taste it
Who can change it, it's the matrix (it's the matrix)

Everything has its turn
After all we've learned
What is it we've earned
Just to watch it burn

This world is on fire
We're restless and we're tired
Is there some place other than this
Maybe somewhere higher
I don't hear no choir
All I see are liars
Is there some place other than this
Maybe somewhere higher

Empires fallen, help is callin'
Though we all win, we keep crawlin'
There ain't no sin that we'll fall in
It looks so dim but we're all in (but we're all in)
Through the cold wind we can see in
We ain't leavin' what we believe in
If it's freezin', ain't no reason
We're still breathin', sun is screamin' (sun is screamin')

Everything has its turn
After all we've learned
What is it we've earned
Just to watch it burn

This world is on fire
We're restless and we're tired
Is there some place other than this
Maybe somewhere higher
I don't hear no choir
All I see are liars
Is there some place other than this
Maybe somewhere higher

Above the carnage
(Couldn't stop it)
Where we started
(It was promised)
All departed
(Almost lost it)
It restarted
(Through the hardship)
Was abolished
(But accomplished)
It was rotted
(Went the farthest)
Earth demolished
(Wasn't gone yet)
Not forgotten
(Forgive our sins)

Everything has its turn
After all we've learned
What is it we've earned
Just to watch it burn

This world is on fire
We're restless and we're tired
Is there some place other than this
Maybe somewhere higher
I don't hear no choir
All I see are liars
Is there some place other than this
Maybe somewhere higher

Maybe somewhere higher
Maybe somewhere higher
Maybe somewhere higher
