World Of Envy

Look inside this world
It's the rules of the game
And if this is what it takes
I'll bear the pain

I've bled for many sins
Life's not always fair
I feel apart of me dying
But I'm still going nowhere

Visions of the future
Are like my nightmares in the past
I must put an end to this soon
Cause we're getting nowhere fast

Cracking concrete and breaking stone
Why are so many left all alone?
Nothing lasts forever, these days always fade
But I'm forced to grin and I'm forced to bear the pain

Seek the truth
But find the lies
Always left with bitter goodbyes
Why does everyone live a lie?

Judgment strikes us all
We only rise to fall
Read the writings on the wall
Bow down to the arm of the law

This world just turns and turns
Until we're mad with rage
Pushing twisted visions
Trying to change darkened days

Falling down, some not getting back up
It's crushing all our faith
Be careful what you believe these days
Because we're in the age of hate

A downward spiral
Is dragging us down
Falling further and further
Until we hit the ground

We've got to break down the walls of silence
Crush them brick by brick
Smash this world of hate and envy
Maybe that will do the trick

Time's just tick, ticking away
Dreams die-hard but don't let the memories fade
Nothing's flawless and nothing's easy
Help me crush this world of envy

Not skinny enough, not pretty
To who's to be the judge?
God has made everyone different
Don't you understand?
None of us can be perfect
Until we reach the promise land
