World War III

Broken lights on the avenue, shining with no reason why
People running from nothing, no one knows where they're going tonight
There's a low fire in my chest that I just can't put out
And a silence screaming loud, saying: It's all going down

I saw a boy getting lost, trying to be more than pain
But the weight of the whole world bent his body in chains
And I felt it on my skin, that cold fear of losing me
When power comes with no direction, it shakes everything you see

Oh, these lights are gonna fall
And I'm still standing here
With a trembling heart in vain
Holding what's left of me near

Oh, if the world comes down tonight
There's nowhere left to run
Something bigger's on its way
And I don't know what it's become

There's an echo in my head that won't let me rest
Every step I take forward pulls me back to the edge
Where fear starts taking shape and begins to carve my soul
And the strength I thought I had just left me losing control

It's too big to ever touch
Too deep to understand
Like a God without a name
Learning how to stand

Oh, these lights are gonna fall
And I'm still standing here
With a trembling heart in vain
Holding what's left of me near

Oh, if the world comes down tonight
There's nowhere left to run
Something bigger's on its way
And I don't know what it's become

When the light turns into pain
And fear becomes a vision
Maybe we were never made
For this kind of collision
