This is the world that we live in I feel myself get tired This is the world that we live in Well, maybe I was mistaken I heard a rumor 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 it's worth it Without a victory I'm so sanctified and free Well, maybe I'm just mistaken Lesson learned And the wheels keep turning This is the world that we live in I can't take blame for two This is the world that we live in And maybe we'll make it through Bless your body, bless your soul Reel me in and cut my throat Underneath the waterfall Baby, we're still in this, oh, yeah This is the world that we live in I feel myself get tired This is the world that we live in I had a dream that I was falling down There's no next time, alone A storm wastes its water on me But my life was free I guess it's the world that we live in It's not too late for that This is the world that we live in And no, we can't 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 This is the world that we live in
