"The World (Is Going Up In Flames)" lyrics

"The World (Is Going Up In Flames)"

This world is going up in flames
And nobody is gonna to take the blame
Don't tell me how to live my life
When you never felt the pain

Oh, oh, oh
Ooh, come on, baby
Ooh, they don't hear me cry
Ooh, they don't hear me chime
Ooh, they don't hear me cry
So what I'm gonna do?
Yeah, baby

I can't turn my head away, seein' on these things
The world is burning up in flames
And nobody wanna take the blame
Is it you? Or you? You? Or you?
Me? Or me?

Ooh, they don't hear me cry
Ooh, they don't hear me chime
Ooh, so stop all that lying

Ooh, oh, you killing me, oh baby, come on, baby
Get it right, gotta lead a better road
Gotta make it, baby
Gotta make it right, uh

Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah baby
