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
I tap into the water and try to bring my share
I try to bring more, more than I can handle
I'll bring it to the table
I'll bring what I am able

I watch the heavens but I find no calling
Something I can do to change whats coming
Stay close to me while the sky's 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
I tap into the water and try to bring my share
I try to bring more, more than I can handle
I'll bring it to the table
I'll 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's 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
A fortune of one man means less for some

The world's on fire it's more than I can handle
I tap into the water and try to bring my share
I try to bring more, more than I can handle
I'll bring it to the table
I'll bring what I am able
The world's on fire it's more than I can handle
I tap into the water and try to bring my share
I try to bring more, more than I can handle
I'll bring it to the table
I'll bring what I am able
