Lyrics
(Verse 1)
Woke up with the same grey sky, another day to chase the dream
Another headline screaming lies, another empty promised scheme
The weight of all the world's a lie, crushing down on my tired soul
Just another face to pass them by, another story left untold
(Chorus)
This world, it keeps on spinning 'round, oblivious to the weary hearts
Doesn't hear the silent cries that pound, tearing beauty all apart
I'm too tired of the fight, too tired of the race
This world, it chews you up and spits you out, leaves no kindness in its wake
(Verse 2)
Used to sing a hopeful song, believed in what they said was true
That good would conquer every wrong, that kindness would see us through
But the battles leave their scars behind, the empathy starts to fade
The fire in my heart's hard to find, replaced by a hollow shade
(Chorus)
This world, it keeps on spinning 'round, oblivious to the weary hearts
Doesn't hear the silent cries that pound, tearing beauty all apart
I'm too tired of the fight, too tired of the race
This world, it chews you up and spits you out, leaves no kindness in its wake
(Bridge)
Maybe there's a spark somewhere, a flicker in the fading light
Maybe there's still someone who cares, who sees the wrong and makes it right
But the cynic in my soul whispers low, "Don't hold your breath, it's all in vain"
This world will keep on taking its toll, leaving only endless pain
(Chorus)
This world, it keeps on spinning 'round, oblivious to the weary hearts
Doesn't hear the silent cries that pound, tearing beauty all apart
I'm too tired of the fight, too tired of the race
This world, it chews you up and spits you out, leaves no kindness in its wake
(Outro)
But even though the world is blind, and hope feels like a distant dream
Maybe I can find a peace of mind, a quiet corner, a gentle stream
Maybe just a little while, to mend the cracks that mark my soul
Maybe find a fragile smile, before I let this world take hold
