The world is cold
The world is cruel
The world has always been dead,
No warning no second chance
Before it takes away our breath
How much has the world taken from us
and
how much more will be lost.
we have smiled
we have laughed
but the world has just given us
a great slap.
It hurts so much, it hurts so much
it hurts so much,
but one day this hurting may just
become a sore, deep rooted to the
core
The world is cold
but don't forget that the sun still revolves around this world.
