Lyrics
Rolling down the freeway, master to the speed of light
Screaming up in the air, bursting through the night
No rest, I've stayed here too long, it's time to move on
Reality's a three way, a scenery defined
By tomorrow dubbed a mystery and the past just blurry lines
If there's ever been injustice in my name, I bow unto blame
And you can give me everything I need this way
We'll be loving till the first light of the day
Set the world on fire with bittersweet desire
To chase away the night, let the whole world burn
Set the world on fire for bliss in sweet denial, oblivion and peace
Will you let me burn?
Drifting like a cast off, the shadows got it good
With constant companions, would that I could
Further afield my nemesis on stilts is gaining on me
So I crawl across the state line, to another state of being
Holding on for dear life to the better days I've seen
Long for the comfort of your loving arms, your passions, your charms
And you can give me everything I need this way...
Set the world on fire...
Did you ever feel your love eclipsing the sun
I give you the reason I'm still on the run
Disappear in the heavy glare of neon
Set the world on fire...
Interviews
- "Daze is the kind of song that has all through these years ripened into some kind of a story about the craziness of our lives and what all this is. And in the middle of all those feelings it embraces how you can experience something horrible in the middle of all the great things and in the middle of horrible things you can understand that it’s the salt and pepper of life, and a really awesome thing." - Marko, Radio Suomi Pop, 2014, translated by DarkSideOfLight[1]
Trivia
- In the MV Marko has a red star painted across his left eye/left part of his face. A year later, Marko's character in Choice Millionaire also has a painted star on the left side of his face.
- All members make an appearance in the MV as guests at the extravagant party.
