World On Fire
Joanne Shaw Taylor
Continues after the ad
I wanna be
All that1 can
I wanna live
More than1am
I wanna see
What's here for me
Despite the picture perfect memories
Thrown out from under me
Take my doubts
Then multiply
By the weight of the world
And the shade of the sky
No i'm not lost
Just tired of running
In the wrong direction
From the thought of a past im shunning
Continues after the ad
I wanna see
The lights getting brighter
I wanna see
My sky's getting higher
I wanna see
The fates conspire
I wanna see
The world on fire
We get a feel
For where we're going
All the while
Never truly knowing
Like the neon lights
That defend the night
There's more in life's meanings
Than we hold in sight
