The world isnt what it used to be

by Mia   Mar 15, 2008


The world isnt what it used to be
Look under the skin
And you will see:
So many people
Acting like everythings fine
But under their skin
Your blood is the wine

The world isnt what it used to be
Look under the skin
And you will see:
Everything has gone the wrong way
Thats what they used to say
Some dont even dare to speak
Some are just too weak

The world isnt what it used to be
Look under the skin
And you will see:
Some say its a happy time
And some say its the time of crime
No matter where you go
It will always be so

But how does the world used to be
You will never know
And you will never see
The world has become a big fat lie
Were only waiting to die
Our hope of a new life is very thin
The world has finally cought us in its spin
Looks like its going to win
The fear is crawling up our spine
With the last life line

The end is near
Maybe you will hear
When the world is crushing under you
And you still dont know what to do

    A very smooth read,
    I like the 'calm before the storm'-apocalyptic vision.

    "Our hope of a new life is very thin
    The world has finally catch us in its spin
    Looks like its going to win"

    Beautiful triple rhyme, although I believe the 'catch' should have been a 'caught'.
