Standing cold and scared on top of the hill

Then came the moment when I lost my will

I prayed for mercy, please don't take me away

Voices in the distance, beautiful

Somebody's calling beyond control

Have you ever felt desperation?

This whole world is filled with loss

We will regret it when we sleep

Promises never meant to keep

When all of the shadows lead

As a good man's hiding a dream

Do they know that the world's on fire?

Time has a price we can't afford

An empty glass and an open door

You get what you paid for in sweat

And a voice says please don't forget

Do they know that the world's on fire?

Do they know that the time is now?

Do they know that you gotta stand up, stand up

Let your voice speak out

Do they know that it's time?

Caught in a maze you can't escape

The flickering lights, and the colored lens

The walls that we build just close in

Until we decide to begin

Are we distracted by the sun?

The gleaming jewels, and the beating drums?

Is it going the distance we fear?

Have you heard that we're already here?

Do they know that the world's on fire?

Do they know that the time is now?

Do they know that you gotta stand up, stand up

Let your voice speak out

Do they know that the world's on fire?

Do they know that the time is here?

Do they know that you gotta stand up, stand up

Let your voice be clear

Do they know that it's time?

Some will say we've gone too far

We're on the edge and in too deep

Some will say we're too far gone

You can't erase the tragedy
