Candle burning
House on fire
The plastic coating
Is melting to the wires
Twist and turning
Pipes explode
The roof's collapsing
Stay with me
You've got nowhere to go
'Cause you're looking so cold

Life moves faster
Through your eyes
It takes disaster
To put value on our lives
All you stand for
Is all you'll find
In a box of pictures
No time for mourning
No point in wondering why
Why your world is on fire

We watch the smoke rise...

It burns right before your eyes
Turn your back, say goodbye

When your world's on fire
Your whole world's on fire...

We watch the smoke rise...
