World On Fire lyrics

Bleak skies hanging over us now Scorched earth gathers under our feet Soft hearts clamour still to belong Our sinking ever bound to disdain Remain, resist- gasp of a caustic mist Remit, regain- to weigh release or pain Turns the sullen eye, braced of stark denial Ignore the failing breath of a world on fire Amidst a heavy wind, looms a faith beguiled Won't face the fading breath of a world on fire Our grief, losses spent to the earth An atmospheric stench of decay Rise from deceit, defined of remorse To tame this poison cost of delay Remain, resist- gasp of a caustic mist Remit, regain- to weigh release or pain Turns the sullen eye, braced of stark denial Ignore the failing breath of a world on fire Amidst a heavy wind, looms a faith beguiled Won't face the fading breath of a world on fire An errant wisp of smoke Raised from an ember small Whose choice to breathe or choke- As the fires rage? Turns the sullen eye, braced of stark denial Ignore the failing breath of a world on fire Amidst a heavy wind, looms a faith beguiled Won't face the fading breath of a world on fire
