Chorus 1:
This is the world that we live in, I feel myself get tired.
This is the world that we live in.
Fill 1:
Verse 1:
Well maybe I was mistaken, I heard a rumour that you quit this day and age.
Well maybe I was mistaken.
Bless your body, bless your soul, pray for peace and self-control.
I gotta believe its worth it, without a victory Im so sanctified and free.
Well maybe Im just mistaken.
Lesson learned and the wheels keep turning.
Chorus 2:
This is the world that we live in, I cant take blame for two.
This is the world that we live in, and maybe well make it through aaah.
Fill 2:
Verse 2:
Bless your body, bless your soul, reel me in and cut my throat.
Underneath the waterfall, baby were still in this woah, yeah!
Chorus 3:
This is the world that we live in, I feel myself get tired.
This is the world that we live in.
Middle Eight:
I had a dream that I was falling (down).
Theres no next time alone.
A storm wastes its water on me.
But my heart, was free.
Chorus 4:
I guess its the world that we live in, its not too late for that.
This is the world that we live in, I know we cant go back.
This is the world that we live in, I still want something real.
This is the world that we live in, I know that, we can heal,
Over time (This is the world that we live in.)
Outro:
(This is the world that we live in.)
