The World as We Know It

Time is becoming more precious than gold
All those times wasted alone, oh
Starving children the poison waters
And the suffocating skies
We won't get another chance this time
We won't get a second chance this time
You'll be lucky if you make it out aliveHaven't we lost our minds?
What the hell were we all thinking?
Now they're choosing sides
This is the world
This is the worldA fire is know as rain
Is brutal in destroying
And spreading all over the place
A bleeding culture, the dying nation
When the money controls the tide
We won't get another chance this time
We won't get a second chance this time
You'll be lucky if you make it out aliveHaven't we lost our minds?
What the hell were we all thinking?
Now they're choosing sides
This is the world as we know it
Have we lost our minds?The tension is rising and rising
And the world is at stake
Take back what belongs to you, my God
Before it's too late
Say goodbye
Say goodbye
Say goodbyeSo close your eyes and paint the picture
Such a stirring back won't last forever, forever
Just close your eyes and paint the picture
'Cause the world we could have had
Would've been better, much better
Just close your eyes and paint the picture
Such a stirring back won't last forever, forever
