Butterfly Effect, The - Worlds On Fire Lyrics






Stand up take a bow
You're leaving so who's laughing now?
Just yourself by yourself
No one else there's no one else

Face the end
Walk out the door
You're leaving giving up on us all
Just yourself by yourself
No one else here who can help

Now you wake up tired
So uninspired
To face the world
The world's on fire

Lay down on the floor
It's over you don't care anymore
Face yourself by yourself
No one else here who can try

Wake up Wake up
To the world
The world's on fire

Where did we go wrong?
Fighting for so long

I didn't ask for this at all
When my back's against the wall
And my face painted for war
I didn't ask for this at all

She is a trained operatic singer, With an amazing range and sense of harmony and vocal control....and having seen these boys live 7 times..... were trying to do the song justice with many late night duets in the garage❤️

    E.... D....

    Yeah world's on fire

  4. H.... C....

    People are comparing this band with Muse but on my own opinion this guys are much more talented and way more progressive than must bands except Dream Theater for sure!

  5. B.... D....

WAKE UP FREASH, STAY A WHILE, LIVE BREATH, IT IS A BEAUTIFUL WORLD, FACE NOTHING, DO NOT TRY, DO NOT BE TIRED, BE FREE, THE WORLD IS ALIVELEAVE, SAY HELLO, SO WHAT. EVIL END. TRUST NO ONE!

    I never get tired of their sound.

  7. A.... Q....

    2018!!!

  8. B.... G....

    my cousin loved this song. we played it at her funeral when she died, aged 26. :( could not stop crying

  9. F.... A....

    I am with you ALWAYS. ♡

  10. S.... J....

    On repeat since Nov 2016

  11. S.... ....

    Reminds me of Miles Davis with the trumpet and all

  12. I.... M....

    I dunno why but this song reminds me of Blackbird by Alter Bridge

    I.... M....

    I heart it to

  13. P.... B....

    Since Trump, Erdogan and Putin this song gathered authenticity ... unfortunately

  14. N.... I....

    reminds me of muse, love it.

  15. R.... J....

    Actually I see a lot more The Reign of kindo than Muse here.
    Great song btw.

  16. S.... ....

    Reminds me of Muse

    S.... ....

    Exactly my thoughts!

    S.... ....

    I listen muse too much time, and i can say that thid band is so especial, the sound is unique

    S.... ....

    And partially 30 seconds to Mars

    S.... ....

    Fuck muse and 30 seconds to Mars. This tops both of them.

  17. K.... M....

    I didn't ask for this at all...my backs against the wall....my face painted for war....I didn't ask for this, for this at all.......Just simply fucken brilliant .....

  18. j.... ....

    what does it says right before the final part?? (I didn't ask for this at all...) the main voice says something 4 times and I hear "are you awake" but I'm not quite sure. Since I'm not a native speaker, maybe someone who actually is can help me to understand. Thanks!

    j.... ....

    I think you're right. "Are you awake?".

  19. M.... W....

    I'm 63 and in my opinion this is as good as it gets. 👏

    M.... W....

    34 & SAME.

  20. D.... Y....

    Clint Boge (the singer) went on to create a new Aussie band named "Thousand Needles in Red"
    They are just as awesome as TBE

    D.... Y....

    Cheers Buddy for the heads up. :-)

  21. G.... M....

    be alot better without the stupid trumpet

    G.... M....

    *doesn't understand music*

    G.... M....

  24. R.... R....

    Yeah Great

  25. C.... ....

    On a side note, i am loving this song!

  26. C.... ....

    It's weird, it's on itunes under a different album title, but it is listed under the Album Final Conversation of Kings song list elsewhere.  Makes no sense whatsoever.

    *LYRICS*

    _Stand up_
    _Take a bow_
    _You're leaving, so who's laughing now?_
    _Just yourself_
    _By yourself_
    _No one else_
    _There's no one else_

    _Face the end_
    _Walk out the door_
    _You're leaving_
    _Giving up on us all_
    _Just yourself_
    _By yourself_
    _No one else here who can help_

    _Now you wake up tired_
    _So uninspired_
    _To face the world_
    _The world's on fire_
    _The wo-orld is o-o-n fire_

    _Lay down on the floor_
    _It's over_
    _You don't care anymore_
    _Face yourself_
    _By yourself_
    _No one else here who can try_

    _Now you wake up tired_
    _So uninspired_
    _To face the world_
    _The world's on fire_
    _The wo-orld is o-o-on fire_

    _Waaake up_
    _Waaake up_
    _To the world_
    _The world's on fire_
    _The wo-o-o-o-orld is on fire_

    _Where did we go wrong?_
    _Fighting for so long_

    _Where did we go wrong?_
    _Fighting for so long_

    _I didn't ask for this at all_
    _When my back's against the wall_
    _And my face painted for war_
    _I didn't ask for this at all_

    *chorus*
    _Are you a-a-afraid?_ *x4*

    _I didn't ask for this at all_
    _When my back's against the wall_
    _And my face painted for war_
    _I didn't ask for this_
    _for this_
    _for this at all_

    t.... ....

    thanks a lot, I'm doing a spanish sub video lyrics for this one and I didn't understand the part that says "are u afraid"...I thought It said "are you awake". GREAT!

    t.... ....

    That's because it is: "Are you awake?"

    t.... ....

    It's definitely "are you awake?"

  28. b.... u....

    sadece kendiniz, kendinizinsiniz. başka kimse yok yardım edebilen. off 

  29. i.... ....

    Comparing them to muse is irrelevant. TBE have a distinct Aussie sound but unless you've lived here you prolly dont get it, which is fair enough.

    Both will send you to the same place

  30. S.... L....

    I like muse.... well liked,. after the 3:00 minute mark?????? You dont know TBE.

  31. S.... L....

    they back yo

  32. b.... ....

    A lot of similarities with muse yes , but I still think after the 3:00 mark it develops it's own original sound , and builds on the muse like themes very well

  33. J.... S....

    what a shame this band broke up, anyone know what happened to their singer?

    J.... S....

    he's back July 2017 and touring

  34. D.... A....

    Muse formed in 1994, this band formed in 1999. So no they aren't.

  35. S.... ....

    oh i´ve missed this song

  36. C.... T....

    Muse is a complete rip off of this!!!

  37. M.... B....

    Once of the best ever ! ;)

  38. M.... ....

    You don't have the guts...

  39. B.... K....

    MasterPiece

  40. t.... ....

    This song is perfect!

  41. m.... ....

    How do stupid people even survive

  42. D.... H....

    one of the best songs i've listened to in the last years. i'm a dude who listens to tool, alice in chains, deftones, mudvayne, la dispute, karnivool, etc............

  43. j.... ....

    yea but who agrees that the take it away ep n begins here rocked while imago n onwards got too soft. just like karnivool. i remember moshing till i had to sit down to those bands back in the day. how do you mosh to this?

  44. m.... ....

    The singers voice is different, but I find it slightly similar to Muse. You're like 13 and stupid enough to make yourself pass out I'm not gonna have any of your sass.

  45. B.... P....

    No its not wtf.

  46. M.... ....

    Sharon: Randy, off the internet.
    Randy: [in childish voice] No! Come on, leave me alone!
    Sharon: No, mister. It's time for night-night.
    Randy: But Sharon, I got stuff to do! I got to see my credit rating, I got to send an e-mail to Nelson, check out Foley's vacation photos.
    Sharon: You don't have to do all that now. You can do one more thing and then it's bedtime.
    Randy: One more thing?
    [clicks on a porn site and starts masturbating]

  47. Y.... A....

    anan zaaa xd

  48. a.... h....

    they just played on the weekend at our local pub then got on the piss with all of us. was a great night

  49. K.... ....

    You are so mad bro ?

  50. M.... A....

    holy shit i'm listening to this for 2 days now and i cant get enough of it

  51. J.... A....

    the chord progression with the vocals reminds me quite a bit of Hotel California

  52. m.... ....

    This is so much like Muse. It's great.

  53. T.... ....

    It's like if the Foo Fighters, Kyuss and Muse had a baby...then these guys came along and we're all BEHOLD!

  54. M.... B....

    this song makes me think of what it would look like when life flashes past my eyes. this song as stages.sad and memoritive. angry and upset. its just so good.this song has got to be the most underated song ive ever come across.

  55. W.... ....

    I have it on good authority that if you type "Google" into Google, you might break the Internet....

  56. T.... M....

    my aussie friend showed me this band,addicted ever since.....Fuck you Jerry! xD

  57. C.... ....

    Also Dead Letter Circus. Im well jealuos of Australia atm, you've got some of the best prog music going

  58. a.... ....

    unfortunately i think you'll find a lot of aussie stuff is the same although are still many great bands out there

  59. z.... ....

    these guys dont get enough of the spotlight

  60. T.... ....

    oh my goodness

    this is good stuff

  61. S.... D....

    Marvellous Music.

  62. T.... ....

    EVERYONE STFU OR I WILL TURN OFF THE INTERNET!!!

  63. a.... ....

    sucks that they feed the masses the shittiest made music... psycologically thought out who can make the most money fort he industries... blah!!,, i stick to pandora and finding new music on my own... mainstream music stucks in any country just saying!!

  64. o.... ....

    As an American, I will say that MOST of our music is indeed complete shit, but there's also a very talented minority that people might find interesting (e.g. Fair to Midland, early Dredg, Abigail's Ghost). In essence, there is still some glimmer of hope in American music ;)

  65. S.... E....

    @polkhigh4touchdowns

    Hip Hop's a joke now, no more good Rap, everyone's just taking the piss. Also, you know the Pop/Hip Hop/Minor Techno shit they play in America + Canada? It's basically the same thing in UAE, except, worse, they're copying it all. It's really pathetic to be honest. And yeah, there's hardly an actual musician amongst them. Music Channels are out to make money, and majority of people like simple, dumbed down, catchy music, not actual + good + proper music.

  66. J.... P....

    @taxi911 fair enough, i am living in the u.s.a now and the music here blows goat, it´s an insult as they blast this hip hop shit all day long, i personally don´t think it should be on a music chanel or station as there´s not a musician amongst them, its the reality tv of music..talentless shit...i think i´d rather listen to what they offer in UAE. couldn´t be worst than pop, hip hop or techno.....
    as for yanks, they certainly are a breed of their own.

  67. S.... E....

    @polkhigh4touchdowns

    a.) Don't call me a Yank, that's just offensive. Calling someone an American or a Yank is the worst thing you can call anyone - at least I don't want to be associated with them.

    b.) We don't have zip codes up here in Canada, we've got postal codes.

    c.) I'm from Pakistan, but was raised in a country with an absolutely shitty taste in music (United Arab Emirates). I'd say the music scene there is worse than North America.

    d.) Hey man, I only listen to good stuff :-p.

  68. J.... P....

    guys, stop comparing !! Muse are great and deserve what they have, as do these guys, and for those of you that say they are copying this band or that band you are just showing your ignorance or true lack of music knowledge....if u want you could say that about every band that they are similar to this or that band....i love Muse( and i am aussie) and i love these guys sooo much, and some of the comparisons make u look stupid. just enjoy the talent...and this song is original and talented

  69. J.... P....

    @taxi911 are you a yank ? good to hear some of you guys appreciate good stuff outside of your zipcode, thumbs up mate, your a champ acknowledging butterly effect and karnivool. Butterfly effect are from my home town. in fact my old singer was their old singer...they´ve done better since they got rid of my old (wamker) of a singer

  70. m.... ....

    This was a fantastic song for them to finish with last night! They played all my favourite songs, it was sweet :)

  71. E.... ....

    This is fucken greaaat!!!!

  72. D.... ....

    @MF3GT All these bands are great. It just frustrates me that they got zero pub. in the states. People listen to boring ass pop music that has a shelf life of 8 weeks here. I want to punch my friends in the face when they call computer synthesized racket that uses the same damn techno beat in EVERY FUCKIN song "amazing" Its all crap. Bands like this give me hope that quality is still alive and well.

  73. f.... ....

    @MrPeteMurrell - Muse have been together since the mid 90's and released their first album in 1999, the same year that Butterfly Effect formed ... mind you, I think that this is their most "Muse-y" song, their other stuff doesn't really have such a Muse influence to my ears.

  74. A.... M....

    @ifstarsalign its trumpet. but yes i agree its so soothing and relaxing :)

  75. i.... ....

    great song.. makes me happy when i hear songs like this that have come out of Aus

  76. R.... R....

    this song describes everything about me so well. love the saxophone @3:57

  77. l.... ....

    @Pougee omg u guys are almost 100% right some awesome bands thx 4 the tip.

  78. m.... ....

    they are in cairns on 25th jan woot woot

  79. L.... L....

    I'm listening to this because it was on the Sick Puppies playlist on here... YouTube this sounds alot more like MUSE lol
    I know they are both Aussie bands but this song reminds me of Blackout by MUSE

  80. P.... M....

    just amazing

  81. P.... M....

    just amazing

  82. s.... ....

    @MF3GT

    And twelve foot ninja.

  83. L.... ....

    Gotta love meeting the band an watching for free backstage. My job rules :D

  84. n.... ....

    The Temper Trap...

  85. A.... ....

    @Pougee Agreed! You guys have some good music.

    As far as I can tell, music in the U.S. seems pretty lousy right now. Majority of the smaller and more creative bands have very little support... leaving us with less shows and venues closing.

    That said I'll be catching Karnivool for the second time in September.

  86. J.... B....

    i orgasmed through all of this

  87. D.... ....

    @shniebly16 Muse wish they wrote this!

  88. D.... G....

    Boring 7 minutes

  89. N.... L....

    @MF3GT Closure in Moscow!

  90. w.... ....

    get to see these guys thursday with calling all cars!! woop woop!!

  91. b.... ....

    what about wolfmother or empire of the sun....there are some musical geniuses coming from australia

  92. M.... ....

    @manchild43 Points for you, I think you've got the right idea.
    But different music incorporates different messages, sometimes that's not the whole idea. Sometimes political, or personal philosophies are incorporated and it takes the song deeper than a person will realize when they just listen to the tune and that's it, with the feelings they take in.

    and repetitiveness is good (y)

    sorry, not trying to bag you or anything, i was just scrolling down and thought i'd say my perspective on it =s

  93. M.... ....

    @shniebly16 agreed.
    Muse are bigger than they should be though, compared to bands like this.

  94. p.... ....

    @shniebly16 Not even close

  95. s.... ....

    This song sounds just like Muse.

  96. s.... ....

    Wow, I love this song. I could listen to it for a weak strait. ahh.. incredible

  97. V.... B....

    This is a MASSIVE rip off for Radioheads: Exit Music for a Film. Don't take my word for it, you be the judge

  98. G.... ....

    Exit Music for a Film - Radiohead

  99. a.... g....

    i saw them live in Milan...simply awesome!i agree, goosebumps!
