Stop the Show! Vs 1 You need it bad, I want it good You try to take over the neighborhood I think It’s a fad, you think we should two sides react no good Pre 1 Fake it till you break it take it till you fall apart Fake it if you make it take it till you start the fall Ch 1 They got a loaded shotgun and a book and they’re coming for you They got the fear from the government news the bad and the ugly and they’re coming for you Post 1 They got a heart filled with hate and a fistful of guns and they’re coming for you We’re gonna turn it around you can’t force us down You think you’re tough but we’ll turn you down Vs 2 It goes to my head don’t wanna start again I reach around and turn but you are not my friend You wanna take it down you got nowhere to go Try to run from the dark hide inside the shadows Pre 2 Ch 2 Post 2 We’re gonna turn it around you can’t force us down You think you’re tough but we’ll turn you down Turn it around you can’t force us down You think you’re tough but we’ll turn it around Bridge Fake it till you break it, take it till you fall apart Fake it if you make it, take it till you start the fall Take take take it apart Fake fake fake from my heart Hate hate set you apart Set you apart Ch 3 Outro Stop the Show! Stop the Show! Stop the Show! Stop the Show! They got a fistful of guns and they’re coming for you They got a fistful of guns and they’re coming for you

America H 03:32
America H Vs 1 Fighting for the hold down waiting for the world to end pop another pill and watch another day begin The eyes in the sky are Looking all around you then wanted it to slow down feeling like it's starting again breaking through the slow down now I'm trying to comprehend the messages and signs trying to find what they intend Ch 1 America, I want you to lie to me or tell me what to do it's in your point of view what you see is what you choose it's in the lens you use that will make up your truth Vs 2 Still fighting for the hold down waiting for the world again back up with the gold mine look at how the rest pretend Anger is a way but it never really helps you know she likes how we pretend but never really wants to go Ch 2 Bridge America America Ch 3 Outro It’s in the lens you use that will make up your truth It’s in the lens you use that will make up your truth

Manic Adderall (Nation of the Damned) Vs 1 Acting like you know Living’s just a dream Caught beside yourself Fight the in between Find the enemy (I want you out of my head) Wake up to a scream (Get out of my head) Paranoia takes control (I want you out of my head) Artificial social roles (Get out of my head) Ch 1 We live, they sleep we’re altered and effected for efficiency every moment in the future is dictated by the past manic Adderall nation of the damned Post 1 Artificial takes away the pain Artificial takes away the pain Vs 2 Acting like you know Living’s just a dream Caught beside yourself Living in between I’m ADD so add it the list And OCD you know you can’t resist Ch 2 Bridge I want you out of my head Get out of my head Artificial takes away the pain (get out of my head) Artificial takes away the pain (get out of my head) Ch 3 I’m ADD so add it the list And OCD you know you can’t resist Paranoia takes control Artificial social roles Outro Artificial takes away the pain (I want you out of my head) Artificial takes away the pain (get out out of my head) Artificial takes away the pain (I want you out of my head) Artificial takes away the pain (get out out of my head)

Massive React Vs 1 Faith fades to denial and you fake it all away Faces in the mirror never looking back the same They want to sell you secrets tell you how to start again To pick up all the pieces and to find the rainbows end I’m not sure that I can stop it now I don’t think that you can tell me how Ch 1 So break it down I’d like to know How you can feel so good watching the world break down Open Your Eyes But take it slow If you’d like to see, which way to go (which way to go) Post 1 Fake it from the inside till you know Hiding from the cracks that start to show Post 2 (Swindy) Your fear burning from the inside Your fate you’re on your own Vs 2 Hands tied back gun up to your throat Voices in the movies all tell you to go Trying to act California with your hands on the wheel Running like an outlaw who’s got something to steal CH 2 So break it down I’d like to know How you can feel so good watching it all break down Open Your Eyes But take it slow If you’d like to see, which way to go (which way to go) Post 3 Fake it from the inside till you know Hiding from the cracks that start to show Fake it from the inside till you know Hiding from the cracks… Bridge (Swindy) So pick up sticks and put your fucking guns away And light your candles for the war and for the world Just like that place you try to hide to get away Another casualty another boy and girl Outro Get your bodies on it’s ok turning into war machines Technology is so fine sip it like a fine wine Get your bodies on it’s ok, turning into war machines Technology is so fine sip it like a fine wine

Wold on Fire (Feat En Esch & Mea Fisher) Intro Obsession, Fame, Obsession Obsession, Money, Obsession Vs 1 They like to say that we are free but it’s expensive We’re addicted to the things we need it’s so offensive Victims of technology Modern angel dressed in dollars Just a passing memory Here today and gone tomorrow Ch 1 We’re on fire We watch it smash, tear, and turn The world’s on fire, and it won’t stop just let it burn Post 1 And it won’t stop Obsession, Fame And it won’t stop Obsession, Money And it won’t stop just let it burn And it won’t stop just let it burn Vs 2 Paint the pictures and you fade away Life is never like a magazine You have enough but you still want more Never satisfied at the core Always looking for the next episode Another way just to fix that hole Try to accept the message Making your mind elastic Trippin the lights fantastic Trippin the lights fantastic Ch 2 Bridge Don’t wanna be another wanna be You’re just another modern wanna be Don’t wanna be another wanna be You’re just another modern wanna be Outro And It wont stop Obsession, Fame And it won’t stop Obsession, Money And it won’t stop just let it burn And it won’t stop just let it burn

The System (Part 1) Vs 1 Look and see who’s behind the curtain Pull it back and take a look inside Intoxicated by the power Patterns shifting start to show the signs Chaos and coincidence Guilty turns to innocent Tracing back the victims change your mind Ch 1 This is the system is it luck or chance They got the power the only way to advance Fight for the freedom and exclusiveness This is resistance to the circumstance Vs 2 You want to run from it all Got to drive and get away See the lakes turn to dirt See the forests through the shade In your mind follow time want to go to see the vision Find the road to the purpose got the knowledge get the wisdom Pre 2 This is democracy we think we choose who leads We give in to the greed They play upon your fears with all the smoke and mirrors This is democracy we think we choose who leads Ch 2 Outro This is the system They got the power This is the system This is resistance
9.
The System (Part 2) Vs 1 Break through the walls of fear don’t tell me this again I know where this began but trying to find how this can end Don’t tell me what to do while I’m trying to comprehend I make up my own mind what I choose to defend Vs 2 Go, go, watch the weapons flow Trace the power to see where the money goes Go, go, watch the weapons flow Trace the power to see where the money goes Fear, fear that’s what they want you to hear Chaos and confusion make the truth disappear Fear, fear that’s what they want you to hear All this confusion makes the truth disappear Outro This is democracy we think we choose who leads We give in to the greed This is democracy we think we choose who leads We give in to the greed, we think When it falls apart the system fails When it goes down the system fails When it falls apart the system fails When it goes down the system fails When it falls apart the system fails When it goes down the system fails Chains break down the system fails Crashing down all around We Can Change the System We Can Change the System Fight for what you know Fight for what you know We Can Change the System We Can Change the System Fight for what you know When it falls apart the system fails When it goes down the system fails Chains break down the system fails Crashing down all around When it falls apart the system fails When it goes down the system fails Chains break down the system fails Crashing down all around
10.
The Wait Is Over Vs 1 You know this time it’s changing everything Seems like the days are turning more extreme I try to leave but can’t escape I don’t have the wings I’m trying to fight the parasites consuming me Pre 1 (Swindy) And I’ll keep on trying to dream it all away And I’ll keep on trying to dream it all away Vs 2 Seems like that god is riding on my back again And I am running out of ways to still pretend I scream the words but they can’t hear I give it all but they don’t care I scream the words they want to hear I give it all but they don’t I give it all but they don’t I give it all but they don’t Pre 2 (Swindy) And I’ll keep on trying to dream it all away and I’ll keep on trying to dream it all away Outro I know I know the wait is over, the wait is over now I know I know the wait is over, the wait is over now I know I know the wait is over, the wait is over now I know I know the wait is over, the wait is over now I dream away, you dream away we dream away, we dream it’s over I dream away
11.
The Slow Reverse As long as we've gone, as far as we've come all that we are just fades into one as hard as we fought we think we have won but end up again right where it begun I have the beginning I know the end I just don't know the in between I have the beginning I know the end but the rest is still a question

about

World On Fire is the 5th studio album from Los Angeles based Blue Eyed Christ and first for Distortion Productions. BEC is the brainchild of John Norten, a veteran in the electro industrial field. The first album by BEC was on the fondly remembered KK Records/Cargo and smashed clubs in the 90s with the single “Catch My Fall”. From appearances on Re Constriction Records’ comps Shut Up Kitty and Rivet Head Culture to a side project with Groovie Mann (Thrill Kill Kult) called Trash Deity, John has had a profound influence on the industrial scene over the years. On World On Fire, John has called in En Esch (KMFDM/Pigface) and Mea Fisher (Lords of Acid) on the title track. World On Fire deals with real world themes and threats that are facing us every day. Blue Eyed Christ has created an industrial masterpiece. It’s time you get burnt!
