Born in 91 in the native sun Like a falling star transcending It had just begun when the west was one And the olden ways were abandoned And there was no light and we were ok And there were machines that'll keep us safe And we had our bums, and we had our peace And were like gods, we were living like kings In our glory, the eagles flew up In our glory, we gave ourselves a way We set the world on fire We set the fire standing right in the middle of it We let the flames grow higher We light the world on We light the world on We set the world on fire We set the fire standing right in the middle of it We let the flames grow higher We light the world on We light the world on fire When the rock gets full, when the bombs, they blew When we hid away in a canyon No, we can't pretend, cuz we know our sin But we just keep taking our chances And there was no light and we were ok And there are machines here to take our place And there is no-one, and there is no peace And we were playing god, we were living like kings We set the world on fire We set the fire standing right in the middle of it We let the flames grow higher We light the world on We light the world on We set the world on fire We set the fire standing right in the middle of it We let the flames grow higher We light the world on We light the world on fire Who's gonna comfort me? Oh now oh now oh now Who's gonna cry for me? Oh now oh now oh now When I'm on my knees Calling out, calling out Oh, now Who's gonna set me free? Oh now oh now oh now We set the world on fire We set the fire standing right in the middle of it We let the flames grow higher We light the world on We light the world on We set the world on fire We set the fire standing right in the middle of it We let the flames grow higher We light the world on We light the world on fire
