Lighting The Fuse Lyrics

we still have hope that the world is going to change
and all the violence will somehow fade away
and i'm gonna bet that tomorrow is just like the rest (just like the rest)
so here it goes once again, we are put to the test

(turn on the news, lighting the fuse
watching the world just burn
turn on the news, lighting the fuse
watching the world just burn)

we still have hope that the world will be a better place
never to be judged by the color of your face
we know that you've heard this a thousand times before (before)
but this is a struggle we can't ignore

(turn on the news, lighting the fuse
watching the world just burn
turn on the news, lighting the fuse
watching the world just burn)

i'm gonna sit and watch it burn
i said i'm gonna sit and watch it burn
i'm gonna sit and watch it burn
i said i'm gonna sit and watch it burn
i'm gonna sit and watch it burn
i said i'm gonna sit and watch it burn
i'm gonna sit and watch it burn
i said i'm gonna sit and watch it fucking burn!

Keep it true to the song

Fix what’s wrong, but don’t rewrite what the artist wrote. Stick to the official released version — album booklet, label site, verified lyric video, etc. If you’re guessing, pause and double-check.

Respect the structure

Songs have rhythm. Pages do too. Leave line breaks where they belong. Don’t smash things together or add extra empty space just for looks.

Punctuation counts (but vibe-editing doesn’t)

Correct typos? Yes. Re-punctuating a whole verse because it ‘looks better’? Probably not. Keep capitalization and punctuation close to the official source.

Don’t mix versions

If you’re editing the explicit version, keep it explicit. If it’s the clean version, keep it clean. No mashups.

Let the lyrics be lyrics

This isn’t the place for interpretations, memories, stories, or trivia — that’s what comments are for. Keep metadata, translations, and bracketed stage directions out unless they’re officially part of the song.

Edit lightly

If two lines are wrong… fix the two lines. No need to bulldoze the whole page. Think ‘surgical,’ not ‘remix.’

When in doubt, ask the crowd

Not sure what they’re singing in that fuzzy bridge? Drop a question in the comments and let the music nerds swarm. Someone always knows.
