LYRICS

In This World

From: Arrival

Lyrics: London Wilde


In this world....


Telling the children our lies

The order must be kept in line

The privileged are born with their gold

By rank and by file bought and sold


The world that we live in

Is not the same

As the world that we’re given

Running our lives, on and on

Machinery drives us from dusk to dawn, Oh Oh

In this world


The farther we fall to our knees

The more that you’re losing your hold on me

Scorching the earth with your crown

Careful or you will come tumbling down


The world that we live in

Is not the same

As the world that we’re given

Running our lives, on and on

Machinery drives us from dusk to dawn, Oh Oh

In this world


And all the lies

Can’t you believe that your life’s worth what mine’s worth?

We’re out of time

Why can’t you see that you need me

Together we live or together we die


Telling the children our lies

Bury your head and pretend your blind

The difference between us is faith

I know we can change


The world that we live in

Is not the same

As the world that we’re given

Running our lives, on and on

Machinery drives us from dusk to dawn, Oh Oh

In this world


In this world
