Verse 1
Turn on the news, another fucking headline of war
Another flag raised, another closing door
Men in suits drawing lines on maps
While mothers pray their sons come back mmmmm.mmm.mmmm
Another speech about right and wrong
Another leader sounding strong
But somewhere far from the TV light
A child is crying through the night while bombs fall gun are draw.
⸻
Pre-Chorus
Everyone shouting who’s right, who’s wrong
But the world keeps turning along mmmm.mmm.mmm
⸻
🌍 Chorus
While the world is burning
We’re still learning
How to love through the fire and fear
While the powers are fighting
People are praying and asking the question WHY
Three praying For a little more peace down here
Through the thunder and the warning
Through the dark before the morning
We keep hoping love appears
While the world is burning here
⸻
Verse 2
Old men arguing over land
Young men fighting where they stand
History repeating like a drum
Still the same old battles come
But in the streets and quiet homes
Hearts are stronger than the thrones
Every prayer and every tear
Says we don’t want war down here
⸻
Pre-Chorus
Maybe someday we’ll see
The world the way it should be
⸻
🌍 Chorus
While the world is burning
We’re still learning
How to love through the fire and fear
While the powers are fighting
People are praying
For a little more peace down here
Through the thunder and the warning
Through the dark before the morning
We keep hoping love appears
While the world is burning here
⸻
Bridge (soft moment)
Maybe peace is closer
Than we think tonight
Maybe hearts can change
When we choose the light
⸻
Final Chorus (big, hopeful)
While the world is burning
We’re still learning
How to rise above the fear
While the darkness gathers
Hope is louder
When the human heart is clear
All about the Texas tea
Through the thunder and the warning
Through the dark before the morning
We keep singing through the years
While the world is burning here
God bless us all…….mmmmmmmmmmm.mm.mm
