The World Goes On Lyrics

Delicate parts

And fiberglass shards

Feels a lot like the kind of people we are

We duct tape the heart

And shoot for the stars

Forgetting the ones that we were at the start

Circles and lines

Sunglasses inside

Trying to hide our egos and pride

But we can decide

What is this life

What do you want to find

And the world goes on

And the world goes on around us

And the world goes on

And the world goes on around us

And we'll be fine

The source of our fears

Year after year

The ongoing thought to make it all disappear

Clenching the prize

While trying to hide

Weighing our worth against the spoils of life

The locking of eyes

The absence of time

Being made new by matching what is inside

Is it enough

To let go and trust

Rest in what we'll become

And the world goes on

And the world goes on around us

And the world goes on

And the world goes on without us

That's ok

We'll be fine

We can waste each other's time

They may laugh

They may lie

They may say that it's a crime

And the world goes on

And the world goes on around us

And the world goes on

And the world goes on around us

And the world goes on

And the world goes on around us

And the world goes on

And the world goes on without us
