The world is burning down
Can't you smell the smoke in the air?
This demon, she is everywhere
Poets and preachers and politicians
They've all had their say
But tomorrow and yesterday
If all of the ignorance in the world
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
If all of the ignorance in the world
