World of Hurt




Please, world, just leave me alone
My tears are dried up and I want to go home
My mind can't take the pain anymore
My soul's been raped and I feel like a whore

Propaganda, soaking in
This is a war I don't think I can win
I've given up, but they're closing still
Like starving wolves moving in for the kill

Why, oh why, must we be this way?
Dog eat dog every day
I can't fight
I can't win
My soul shudders and waits for the end
