Blanket over the city,
I got, cover over my eyes.
I look, and what i see is a pity.
Bygones be bygones we die.
Last chance hotel, on my left side,
I ain't got, no chance at all on my right.
Soon we'll be fighting, one side or the other,
Then fade on into the night.
World on fire...watch it burn.
World on fire...as it turns.
Night turns to day, and still i find no way,
No way to straighten it out.
I'll live, then i'll die and still i'll wonder why,
It had to happen this way.
This is the life, in the city,
You try and try, it's such a pity.
Finding your way,
Through the woods, in the dark.
Guided by, only a spark.
World on fire...watch it burn, yeah.
World on fire...watch it turn, yeah.
World on fire...watch it burn, yeah.
World on fire...as it turns.
Last chance hotel, on my left side,
I ain't got, no chance at all on my right.
Soon i'll be fighting, one side or the other,
Then fade on into the night.
World on fire.
World on fire.
World on fire.
World on fire.
