Stratovarius - 'World On Fire' (official video)

Don't you dare
to close your eyes
It's time to realize
We lost the game
and are to blame
Mankind will expire

Better start to think
Cause the ship's about to sink
The storm is here,
the end is near,
Our world is on fire

Everyday we saw the signs
Everyday we closed our eyes
Now we pay
For every choice that we made

This is the moment that defines
Is all we ever leave behind
A world we betrayed
Our world is on fire
Destruction,
now burning
Our world is on fire
Warning,
now the heat is rising,
there's no returning
Our world is on fire

We can turn this world around
We won't let them bring us down
Let's make a choice,
to raise our voice
And take ourselves higher

We're right and they are wrong
They are weak and we are strong
And we will fight for what is right
Our world is on fire

Everyday we saw the signs
Everyday we closed our eyes
Now we pay
For every choice that we made
This is the moment that defines
Is all we ever leave behind
A world we betrayed

Our world is on fire
Destruction,
now burning
Our world is on fire
Warning,
now the heat is rising,
there's no returning
Our world is on fire
Warning

Our world is on fire
destruction,
now it's burning
Our world is on fire
Warning,
now the heat is rising,
there's no returning
Our world is on fire
Warning,
destruction,
everything burning
Our world is on fire
Warning,
now the heat is rising,
there's no returning
Our world is on fire
Warning

Warning
it's burning
Our world is on fire
Warning
Our world is burning
Our world is on fire
Warning

Δισκογραφική επιστροφή μετά από μία επταετία για τους Stratovarius. Ο διάδοχος του δίσκου "Eternal" (2015) και 17ο συνολικά full length album τιτλοφορείται "Survive" και αναμένεται τον πρώτο φθινοπωρινό μήνα...

Δελτίο τύπου: «Seven years after the release of their last album 'Eternal', Stratovarius once more prove their status as Symphonic Metal flagship and come back with a big bang.

A blistering comeback from one of heavy metal’s most seminal bands, Survive is full of dynamics and drama, feeding on a wide range of emotions along the way. But the core message that this triumphant endeavour conveys is one of struggle, defiance, hope and victory.

With 'World On Fire', Stratovarius enter stage two on the way to the release of their new album 'Survive'. The band dives deeper into current world issues, finding more drastic words while staying true to their larger-than-life sound.»

Timo Kotipelto (about the song): «World on Fire is a powerful song with an important message. Our planet is suffering. And it is because of us. We are destroying our own home planet. Climate change is happening, and we need to do everything in our power to slow it down. We need to think about our kids and future generations.»
