World

World, you opened up your eyes
Another sun will rise
And you begin
To tell your story

World, what would you tell us first
When you find the words?
Are you afraid
That we might listen?

Seems we're always trying to slow you down
But you just keep on turning round and round

World, there's nowhere we can hide
We're as fragile as our pride
Shrug your shoulders
And cities crumble

World, you taught us to believe
Gave us everything we need
Why do we feel
It's all been stolen?

Have we always been an outlaw breed
Each life one moment of your destiny

World, we've had 10 million years
You've shed our hopes and fears
Is it too late
To say we're sorry

World, you've been there as a friend
Can we, please, try again?
Oh, world
We don't want you to end
