In This World Lyrics

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
