The World That You Live In - Such Gold

«The World That You Live In»

Well hey, how’ve you been?

It’s been so long since you were a friend

All of these people inside a room

Pretend to care less about themselves than they do you

When nothing else could be farther from the truth

This is the world that you live in

Well hey, when you said that the world was going to end

I don’t think that’s what you really meant

All of these people inside a tomb

And they won’t be coming back any time soon

Centuries of crawling backwards towards the womb

I won’t go, will you please.

so please just leave me

Eaten, drowned, or diseased.

Eternally

So the next time that you see evidence of me

I’ll be out on the sea with strength to be

The man that I want to be

And nothing that you think will make a difference in me

Will make a difference in me

Nothing that you say will make a difference in me anyway

And besides I know that you don’t have to be

Part of the world that I live in

Fuck the world that you live in
