When the World

Lyrics

[Verse 1] Bodies lie around me Only shells left from the fight Victims of the ones That turn the day into the night Survivors stumble through the field They're calling for the priest Branded with a sign The number of the beast It's hell! [Verse 2] I can't escape the nightmare That's here before my eyes A prisoner of destiny A victim of the night My thoughts, they move in circles I'm heading for the fall They tell me hope dies last But I got no hope at all [Pre-Chorus] So talk to me, the world I see Has reached the point of no return The tons of grief killed my belief My heaven's on fire and it burns [Chorus] When the world's on my shoulders And the pain comes again Then I wish I could be there In my dreamland again There, I'm free from the madness Without chains and no wall When the world's on my shoulders I will pray for you all [Verse 3] Is someone there to save us From the voices in the dark? The words fly out like bullets They leave a deadly mark The mindless kill their agony With prices from the show They're heading for tomorrow But they don't know where to go [Pre-Chorus] So talk to me, the world I see Has reached the point of no return The tons of grief killed my belief My heaven's on fire and it burns [Chorus] When the world's on my shoulders And the pain comes again Then I wish I could be there In my dreamland again There, I'm free from the dark And I'm safe from the wall When the world's on my shoulders I will pray for you all [Bridge] So if you talk to me now About our belief And all the meaning somehow Is to make people free All our lives we fear to be what we hate Breaking this curse with a fire That burns all the darkness away Save me, hold me, help me Free me, love me, heal me [Solo: Kai / Both / Kai] [Chorus] When the world's on my shoulders And the pain comes again Then I wish I could be there In my dreamland again There, I'm free from the dark And I'm safe from the wall When the world's on my shoulders I will pray for you all
