In Our World

Looking back at dreams I once had

Looking at 'em now they seem so far away

During all these years being a witness

Of these freedom ideals gone so far away

So many times I've been crying

All these lonely tears have gone too far away

Hoping for honesty and justice

But in people's minds it won't change anyway

So why are we taking people's lives

I pray God to forgive us for our faults

But they speak well, they teach well

They do well, they've got the right way

They show you, they rule you

They got you, they send you away

Now I'm reaped, I'm tired

Exhausted, I'm washed away

Though I'm striving, I'm fighting

And creeping, in that mess anyway

You know they speak well, they teach well

They do well, they've got the right way

They show you, they rule you

They got you, they send you away

Now I'm reaped, I'm tired

Exhausted, I'm washed away

Though I'm striving, I'm fighting

And creeping, no mercy anyway

Hanging on worthless promises

It's always been the same thing each and

every day

There's nothing you can do about it

In our world it's always been like this

anyway

But I don't lose hope...
