about

The World” is a simple meditation on the fact that you gotta take the good with the bad. This world is filled with so much beauty and so much pain and things that work out perfectly and horrors that seem to make no sense at all

lyrics

The world is a beautiful place
even though I don’t like it sometimes
Seeing what ya get
Ya don’t know what you’re expecting
You’re waiting on the things
That I know you’ve been rejecting
The world is a beautiful place
Even though i don't like it sometimes

The world is a funny place
Even though it makes me sad sometimes
Seeing what you’ll get
You don't know what to expect
But you’re in the game
So you know you can’t complain
The world is a funny place
Even though it makes me sad sometimes
it makes me sad sometimes
Oh it makes me sad sometimes
It makes me sad sometimes

And my heart goes out to the winners of lotteries
They drive home in the sun
But take another piece of me

The world is a crazy place
And i just can’t take it sometimes
You’re ever in a rush
You don’t know what to expect
And even in the mud
You can’t get that upset
The world is a funny place
Even if it makes me sad sometimes
Oh it makes me sad sometimes
Oh it makes me sad sometimes
Oh it makes me sad sometimes
