Worlds On Fire Lyrics - Stand Up Stand Up - Hanson

World's on fire 

Watched from a distance it's beautiful 

Somebody's caught in the undertow 

Have you ever felt desperation 

Cause the salt water's filling your lungs 

We're in regret of where we sleep 

Promises never meant to keep 

When all that the shadows need 

Is a good man to hide in a dream 

Do they know that the world's on fire 

Time is a price you can't afford 

An empty glass and an open door 

You get what you pay for in sweat 

And a voice says please don't forget 

Do they know that the world's on fire 

Do they know that the time is now 

Do they know that you've got to stand up stand up 

Let your voice speak out 

Do they know that it's time 

Caught in a maze you can't escape 

The flickering lights and the colored lens 

The walls that we build just close in 

Until we decide to begin 

Are we distracted by the sun 

The glittering jewels and the beating drums 

Is it going the distance we fear 

Have you heard that we're already here 

Do they know that the world's on fire 

Do they know that the time is now 

Do they know that you've got to stand up stand up 

Use your voice speak out 

Do they know that the world's on fire 

Do they know that the time is here 

Do they know that you've got to stand up stand up 

Let your voice be clear 

Do they know that it's time 

Some will say we've gone to far 

We're on the edge, we're in too deep 

Some will say we're too far gone 

You can't erase a tragedy 

Do they know that the world's on fire 

Do they know that the time is now 

Do they know that you've got to stand up stand up 

You've got to stand up stand up 

Do they know that the world's on fire 

Do they know that the time is here 

Do they know that you've got to stand up stand up
