The world is burning down
|
Can't you smell the smoke in the air?
|
War, disease, and famine
|
This demon, she is everywhere
|
|
Poets and preachers and politicians
|
They've all had their say
|
And we got 10,000 years
|
Devoted to nothing
|
But tomorrow and yesterday
|
|
If all of the ignorance in the world
|
Passes a second ago
|
What would you say?
|
Who would you obey?
|
I am here to say that
|
|
Peace is now
|
|
Mr. President
|
I hereby pardon you of all your crimes
|
For they are just as much mine
|
|
Selfishness and separation have led me
|
To believe that the world is not my problem
|
The world is not my problem
|
I am the world
|
And you are the world
|
|
If all of the ignorance in the world
|
Passes a second ago
|
What would you say?
|
Who would you obey?
|
I am here to say that
|
|
Peace is now
|
