This World is Burning

Spread the disease Brave desolation Hail to the chief The rape of a nation Liars and thieves have kicked down the door The people survive on the scraps from the floor Silent elites Contrive deviation Twisted beliefs Revive segregation Profits of power are hidden off-shore The world is undone by a knave and his whore Let your spirit fly Say your last goodbye and Fade into the everlasting oceans Just watch them fall apart Staring at the sun Blinding everyone and Melting in the heat of their devotion This world is burning Schemers unleashed Preaching psychosis False bittersweet Crushing the hopeless Madness, corruption, the brink of a war Justice is too blind to settle the score Violent release Seductive hypnosis Forced to retreat Obscene and corrosive Money and vanity spit on the law The cost of a lie doesn't count anymore Let your spirit fly Say your last goodbye and Fade into the everlasting oceans Just watch them fall apart Staring at the sun Blinding everyone and Melting in the heat of their devotion This world is burning Standing at the door Tell me what will you settle for All that's within Is there for the taking All that's without Is damned and forsaken All that we've lost Diminished and broken All gone to hell The people have spoken Let your spirit fly Say your last goodbye and Fade into the everlasting oceans Just watch them fall apart Staring at the sun Blinding everyone and Building walls to keep you safe Never practice what they're preaching Stand in line to be betrayed Self-deception, double dealing Life will never be the same Losing sight of what we're missing Freedom pills are up for sale Close your eyes the night is here to stay
