The World We Used to Know Lyrics

The world we used to know is slowly changing
The things we learned to fear keep on rearranging
The upside will fall down and while we watch, we live we learn
This old world keep on turning - then burn, burn, burn

You're on the outside looking in
So you place your bet
But there is no game, there is no winner
Right in 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
The madman's on a quest - he's shaking borders
His hands upon a crown, when he slip the world is falling down
This world will never learn - just burn, burn, burn

You're on the outside looking in
So you place your bet
But there is no game, 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
Convenient lies
But there's no way that you can fight it
We look at life 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 whirlwind in your heart
But your soul will see the sun
It's who you are
