Send ‘World on Fire’ Ringtone to Cell

Hearts are worn in these dark ages
You're not alone in these stories pages
The light has fallen amongst the living and the dying
And I'll try to hold it in, yeah, I'll try to hold it in

    On one lazy afternoon I was looking for inspiring videos and I saw this song. After about a minute I realised I didn't even know the name of the song 'coz I was busy reading the text in the video.....Good stuff!

    *that awkward moment when you're listening to the original album version because you bought the album and support the artist* >_>

    The version on Afterglow (2003) is the original one, isn't it? Which one is quote crap un-quote?

    This was the version I remember seeing on Much Music, I think? The video is what really stood out to me, she took the budget and donated it to various charities/aid organzations.

    I was driving earlier and this came on shuffle when I was listening to my iPod. It's been a while since I last listened to this but it was a nice peaceful song for a lazy Sunday.

    Original version is a little slower and nicer, IMO
