"World On Fire" lyrics

"World On Fire"

Couldn't make out the words
But there was something about the tunes
The band went on two hours late
And there was barely anyone in the room

I always find what I'm looking for
But never really where I expect
I took some comfort in their sound
So I stuck around for all of their set

I had a feeling that was hard to describe
I was happy, sad at the same time
Sad at the same time

Ba-da-da-da, ba-da-da
Ba-da-da-da, ba-da-da

I bought a record and I shook their hand
We stood outside and talked
Everybody knows the world's on fire
But for the moment, we forgot

I had a feeling that was hard to describe
I was happy, sad at the same time
Sad at the same time

Ba-da-da-da, da-da-da
Ba-da-da-da, ba-da-da
Ba-da-da-da, da-da-da
