World on Fire

Hearts are worn in these dark ages You're not alone in this story's pages The light has fallen amongst the living and the dying And I'll try to hold it in, yeah, I'll try to hold it in The world's on fire, it's more than I can handle Tap into the water, try to bring my share Try to bring more, more than I can handle Bring it to the table, bring what I am able I watch the heavens but I find no calling Something I can do to change what's coming Stay close to me while the sky is falling I don't wanna be left alone, don't wanna be alone The world's on fire, it's more than I can handle Tap into the water, try to bring my share 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 our killer sun Stray from the straight line on this short run The more we take the less we become The fortune of one man means less for some The world's on fire, it's more than I can handle Tap into the water, try to bring my share Try to bring more, more than I can handle Bring it to the table, bring what I am able The world's on fire, it's more than I can handle Tap into the water, try to bring my share Try to bring more, more than I can handle Bring it to the table, bring what I am able --- World on Fire - Sarah McLachlan
