World on Fire

Sarah McLachlan

Hearts are worn in these dark ages

You're not alone in this story's pages

Night has fallen amongst the living and the dying

And I try to hold it in, yeah I try to hold it in

The world's on fire and

It's more than I can handle

I dive into the water

(I try to bring my share)

I try to bring more

More than I can handle

(Bring it to the table)

Bring what I am able

I watch the heavens and I find a calling

Something I can do to change what's coming

Stay close to me while the sky is falling

Don't wanna be left alone, don't wanna be alone

The world's on fire and

It's more than I can handle

I dive into the water

(I try to bring my share)

I try to bring more

More than I can handle

(Bring it to the table)

Bring what I am able

Hearts break, hearts mend

Love still hurts

Visions clash, planes crash

Still there's talk of

Saving souls, still the cold

Is closing in on us

We part the veil on Archille's sun

Stray from the straight line on this short run

The more we take, the less we become

A fortune of one that means less for some

The world's on fire and

It's more than I can handle

I dive into the water

(I try to bring my share)

I try to bring more

More than I can handle

(Bring it to the table)

Bring what I am able

The world's on fire and

It's more than I can handle

I dive into the water

(I try to bring my share)

I try to bring more

More than I can handle

(Bring it to the table)

Bring what I am able
