Turning on the TV, a man dressed in black says
"The tensions and waters are rising"
Happiness is treason, fiction is fact
And a storm's always on the horizon
I hear the alarms, but here in your arms
Seems like a fine place to die
The world's on fire, I burn
Happily dancing with you
Take my body and I'll be
The soul you come crashing into
If it has to be the end
All I ask is that I get
To burn with you
To burn with you
Love me like a scandal, wreck me like a wave
Take me back to the place I remember
Wе could light a candle, put a record on
'Til we turn into ashеs and embers
I hear the alarms, but here in your arms
Seems like a fine place to die
The world's on fire, I burn
Happily dancing with you
Take my body and I'll be
The soul you come crashing into
If it has to be the end
All I ask is that I get
To burn with you
To burn with you
Breathe me in, breathe me out
'Til the walls come crumbling down
Pull me close, love me now
'Til there's nothing left of this town
Breathe me in, breathe me out
'Til the walls come crumbling down
Pull me close, love me now, love me now
The world's on fire, I burn
Happily dancing with you
Take my body, and I'll be
The soul you come crashing into
If it has to be the end
All I ask is that I get
To burn with you
To burn with you
