Building Better Worlds (Extended Acoustic Version)

[Verse 1]
When the darkness closed in all around
It didn't bring us down
It only made stronger for those days
When they turned our dreams to distant thoughts
The embers still burned hot
And now the flames will blaze

[Chorus]
So let them burn
They set the fire
Now we can see
How they conspire
But they've been shattered
Like broken glass
And now we're building better worlds
On the ashes of the past

[Verse 2]
When oppression came here from all sides
We didn't take their lies
We saw a revolution rising
When they asked us why we're not the same
We wouldn't play their game
We are the voices crying

[Chorus]
So let them burn
They set the fire
Now we can see
How they conspire
But they've been shattered
Like broken glass
And now we're building better worlds
On the ashes of the past

[Verse 3]
But no the battle isn't won
This war has only just begun
And we'll keep fighting, keep building, a better place for us
And if they strike us down tonight
We'll sear the darkness with the light
It's revolution time, and you're on our side

[Bridge]
So let them burn
They set the fire
Now we can see
How they conspire
But they've been shattered
Like broken glass
And now we're building better worlds
On the ashes

[Chorus]
So let them burn
They set the fire
Now we can see
How they conspire
But they've been shattered
Like broken glass
And now we're building better worlds
On the ashes of the past

[Verse 4]
Nobody wants to walk the road alone
We're ten thousand miles from home
And I don't want to disappear
Where do we go from here?
Nobody wants to play a useless part
In matters of the heart
I'm standing here so far away
I'll meet you at the end someday

[Verse 5]
Can't do this without you
Together we can make it through these
Roads around
The battleground
Chapters closed on our new start
We're getting to my favourite part
'Cause you're the only one
Who can tame my dragon heart

[Outro]
Now they've been shattered
Like broken glass
Now we're building better worlds
On the ashes
The ashes of the past
