World On Fire lyrics - Daughtry

Going down like a dead man walking

One step from a body in a coffin

Just one, one of the fallen

Waking up to a blood moon, howling

Can't drown it out, even with the medicine

Tearing through me like a bullet on adrenaline

Arms heavy, face down on a death bed

Blame the gods while choking on the violence

In the end, silence is deafening

Can you hear the crowd like a thousand sirens?

In the night like thunder striking

The sickness is rising

The angels are crying

That's the sound of a world on fire

Stressed out, head trauma, took a beating

Takes more than a pill to numb the feeling

Bang, bang, no mercy for the healing

Oh, 20 dead without a fight, without a reason

20 more in a cop car, bleeding

All tryna win a war without a meaning

Can you hear the crowd like a thousand sirens?

In the night like thunder striking

The sickness is rising

The angels are crying

That's the sound of a world on fire

World on fire

World on fire

Arms heavy, face down on a death bed

Blame the gods while choking on the violence

In the end, silence is deafening

Can you hear the crowd like a thousand sirens?

In the night like thunder striking

The sickness is rising

The angels are crying

That's the sound of a world on fire

Fire

Yeah, can you hear the crowd like a thousand sirens?

In the night like thunder striking

The sickness is rising

The angels are crying

World on fire

(World on fire, world on fire)

World on fire

(World on fire, world on fire)

The sickness is rising

The angels are crying

That's the sound of a world on fire
