I see the world on a string
|
It's hanging from a wire
|
It gets tangled up and spun around
|
Like the truth inside a liar
|
Sometimes you wanna get high
|
And sometimes you run and hide
|
Cause it eats you up and spits you out
|
It swallows you alive
|
|
When I'm down on my knees
|
And it hurts to believe (I'm bleeding)
|
You'll bring me back to life
|
When there's no songs to sing
|
And no flowers to bring (no feeling)
|
You'll bring me back to life
|
You'll bring me back to life
|
|
I see the world on a beach
|
It's sinking in the sand
|
Oh it tries to suck you down with it
|
You better get out while you can
|
Sometimes you wanna scream out
|
And sometimes you just can't
|
Cause your lips
|
Feel like they're glued together
|
And no one gives a damn
|
|
When I'm down on my knees
|
And it hurts to believe (I'm bleeding)
|
You'll bring me back to life
|
When there's no songs to sing
|
And no flowers to bring (no feeling)
|
You'll bring me back to life
|
You'll bring me back to life
|
|
This is the world on a string
|
There's no songs left to sing
|
Just sing
|
Sing
|
|
I see the good
|
i see the bad
|
The revolution
|
I see the happy
|
I see the sad
|
The absolution
|
I see hate
|
And I see love
|
When the world's on a string
|
|
When I'm down on my knees
|
And it hurts to believe (I'm bleeding)
|
You'll bring me back to life
|
When there's no songs to sing
|
And no flowers to bring (no feeling)
|
You'll bring me back to life
|
|
When I'm down on my knees
|
And it hurts to believe (I'm bleeding)
|
You'll bring me back to life
|
When there's no songs to sing
|
And no flowers to bring (No feeling)
|
And you'll bring me back to life
|
And you'll bring me back to life
|
And you'll bring me back to life
