The World We Used to Know

The world we used to know Is slowly changing The things we learned to fear Keep on rearranging The upside will fall down And why we'll watch, never learn? It's over, keep on turning And burn, burn, burn You're on the outside looking in So you place your bet But there is no gain There is no winner Riding the darkest of energies No remedies There is no way you can justify this On and on and on The world we used to know is getting colder A madman is on a quest He is shaking borders His hand is upon a crown When he slips, the world is falling down This world will never learn Just burn, burn, burn You're on the outside looking in And so you place your bet But there is no gain There is no winner If we could go back and make it right There's no remedy And that's a cold world and we're getting older You're in a circle of black and white Come main in lights But there is no way that you can fight it We'll get light from the other side With different eyes With different eyes When love lays down With your feet upon the ground You can't hide, it's all around It's who you are When the rain, it falls so hard Like a world within your heart But your soul will see the sun It's who you are, whoa
