The World You Know Lyrics by Anne Dorko

No Time to Explain

2024

I've got you under my thumb
I don't want you to give up
I kinda like this control
I think I'm under your skin
Come on now, just let me in
I am a sight to behold
You're here without all your friends
You can no longer pretend
You can resist what I hold
You know I gave you your name
And all those voices the same
Now I'm taking over
My fire is a beacon in the night
As it burns away the old
We know some must sacrifice for a new world
Put down your fight, come join by my side
Together we can usher in
My endless light
Why must you question my plan
You're getting way out of hand
This is your only way out
The world must first turn to ash
And soon, we gotta move fast
Ignore all the screams and shouts
You know it's all but too late
I already shut the gate
My offer's about to expire
Goodbye to that world you know
Away in ashes it blows
In the heat of my brilliant fire
My fire is a beacon in the night
As it burns away the old
(It burns, it burns)
We know some must sacrifice for a new world
(A new world)
So put down your fight, come join by my side
Together we can usher in
(Usher in)
My endless light
I can see the fire in you mirrors that of mine
I forged your destiny with the rest of me
Now our fates are intertwined
Don't turn your back on our light
Don't turn your back on my light
My fire is a beacon in the night
(Beacon in the night)
As it burns away the old
(Let it burn, let it burn)
We know some must sacrifice for a new world
(A new world)
So put down your fight, come join by my side
Together we can usher in
My endless light
