Some of us wanna be soldiers
Fighting for a cause in a faraway land
Some of us wanna stay home
Fighting the good fight, doing the best we can
What a time to be alive
These are days that could kill us all
We decide to do or die
Find a reason to save our souls
What a time to be alive
It's alright in a world on fire
Some people wanna be poets
Painting pictures with words and rhymes
Some of us just don't know it
Living day to day, touching the divine
What a time to walk alive
These are days that could kill us all
We decide to do or die
Find a reason to save our souls
What a time to be alive
What a time to be alive
It's alright in a world on fire
It's alright in a world on fire
