If The World Just

(album: A Prayer For The Loud - 2019)

You say you want silence
But no man's an island
You know it takes all kinds
To make up a world
And you don't want trouble
But you're making it double
When you're afraid to get hurt

You say you want patience
Because everything's changing
But no one's waiting
For yesterday's news
Your one chance of winning
Was if the world stopped spinning
Like all dreamers do

If the world just made another mistake
Because it didn't read your mind
And if the world just made another heart break
By leaving you behind
It's because you live inside of your head
All the time

If someone mentions
Hey, share your intentions
But, what everyone else thinks
You don't wanna know
Life's a relation
Whatever you are facing
You wanna do it alone

If the world just made another mistake
Because it didn't read your mind
And if the world just made another heart break
By leaving you behind
It's because you live inside of your head
All the time

If you could save a life
With what you know
If the life you saved
Would be your own
Or you could stay forever in that state
A little slow
A little late

If the world just made another mistake
Because it didn't read your mind
And if the world just made another heart break
By leaving you behind
It's because you live inside of your head
All the time
