T'Pau Lyrics
"World On Fire"
Trying to breath in cause no offence
I keep my head down I keep hold of myself
But I cannot speak, or whisper my beliefs
I keep them in my pocket so that no one can see
Coz times are changin', the trouble we're makin'
It's cutting through me like a red hot wire
I walk a line between the world you want and mine
But I can't let you know what I'm feeling
I need to find a way to thrive not just survive these crazy days
Did they make you change your ways
You pulled the statues down, you've got your new pronouns
Now tell me what' s it gonna take to make you happy
Keep looking right behind coz you will be next in line
Someone new is gonna take you down
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh... world on fire
Temperature rising, we're homeward bound
The earth is sliding and we all fall down
I need somewhere to go, somewhere that I know
But nothing looks the same don't think it ever will again
That's what you get you place a bet that you'll regret in crazy days
Don't it make you feel afraid
You pulled the statues down, you've got your new pronouns
Tell me, does it really make you happy
Keep looking right behind coz you will be next in line
Something new will run you out of town
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh... world on fire
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh... world on fire
Look what you get you placed a bet that you'll regret in crazy days
Don't it make you change your ways
You pulled the statues down, you've got your new pronoun
I don't think it even makes you happy
Keep looking right behind coz you will be next in line
Someone new will run you out of town
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh... world on fire
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh... world on fire
