World On Fire

Going down like a dead man walking
 One step from a body in a coffin
 Just one, one of the fallen
 Waking up to a blood moon, howling
 Can't drown it out, even with the medicine
 Tearing through me like a bullet of adrenaline
 Arms heavy, face down on a death bed
 Blame the gods while choking on the violence
 In the end, silence is deafening
 Can you hear the crowd like a thousand sirens?
 In the night like thunder striking
 The sickness is rising
 The angels are crying
 That's the sound of a world on fire
 ♪
 Stressed out, head trauma, took a beating
 Takes more than a pill to numb the feeling
 Bang, bang, no mercy for the healing
 Oh, twenty dead without a fight, without a reason
 Twenty more in a cop car, bleeding
 All tryin' to win a war without a meaning
 Can you hear the crowd like a thousand sirens? (lost in silence)
 In the night like thunder striking (in a sea of silence)
 The sickness is rising
 The angels are crying
 That's the sound of a world on fire

 Yeah, can you hear the crowd like a thousand sirens? (lost in silence)
 In the night like thunder striking (in a sea of silence)
 The sickness is rising
 The angels are crying
 World on fire, world on fire, world on fire, yeah
 World on fire, world on fire, world on fire
 The sickness is rising
 The angels are crying
