Knowing your stuck into place
And every flame that licks
Causes your heart to race
It's encircling your world
But you know it's not just you
Because other people are burning
And you hear them scream to
And it haunts you from the sounds at night
No sleep for the weary the sounds keep you up tight
And you pray for peace to follow through
So that everyone will be all right
But you also wonder as you do
Why that knot in your stomach feels tighter tonight
