LYRICS


Fires

The world’s on fire
and our world’s on fire
the world’s on fire
and our world’s on fire
the world’s on fire
and our world’s on fire
this is the end
and this is desire

this is the end
and this is desire

lay with me my love
lay with me my darling
cover me with light
cover me in darkness

this is the end
and this is the fire

the world’s on fire
and our world’s on fire
the world’s on fire
and our world’s on fire
the world’s on fire
and our world’s on fire






you’re my only drug
you’re my only weakness
so cover me with light
and cover me in darkness

the world’s on fire
and our world’s on fire

it’s five to midnight
it’s coming in
there’s no place I’d rather be
there’s no sight I’d rather see than you, my dear 

this is the end
and this is desire

so lay with me my love
lay with me my darling

the sky is red
the sky is falling

the world’s on fire
and our world’s on fire
the world’s on fire
and our world’s on fire
the world’s on fire
and our world’s on fire
