She Wasn't The One

When I woke up this morning, everything was fine
I thought I had my baby, I thought she was all mine
But now things are all strange, my life’s turned upside down
I feel like a king without a castle, not even a throne or crown
She loved me so tenderly
Or at least I thought so
But deep down I always knew
One day she’d have to go
But now that everything has been said and done
I’ve finally moved on since now I know she wasn’t the one
When I went into town, I saw her once again
A shadow fell over the sun, then it rained onto my skin
And then I was alone, as I burned endlessly
I thought all about what I had done, as I drowned in the sea
I grew up believing things that no one ever should
And the worst part of that fantasy was I thought it was good
But now that everything has been said and done
I’ve finally moved on since now I know she wasn’t the one
As I’m sitting in my jail cell
Knowing I made my life a living hell
And the people that I wronged just walked away
While the vines choked all my memories
And I died on a ship left out to sea
My life just fell apart while the cause of everything was me
They say everybody has someone made just for them
So I sure fucking hope that I find mine before my end
And now that things have wound on down, and we’ve finished having fun
And now that everyone I know is dying on the rungs
And now that everything has been said and done
I’ve finally moved on, since now I know she wasn’t the one

World On Fire

There’s a world on fire
Oh lord
See the souls for hire
Oh lord
There’s a world on fire
But when are you gonna come down?
When I was a little child
I stared into the sea
And what I saw it drove me wild
Until that ocean was me
When I was a little child
I never questioned a thing
And as a result I’m always silent when I have to sing
There’s a world on fire
Oh lord
See the souls for hire
Oh lord
There’s a world on fire
But when are you gonna come down?
When I grew up the next day
My thoughts had grown so tall
And my eyes they flowed in their own unique way
As my skin began to fall
When I grew up the next day
The smoke it made me cough
And now I’m melting while the clock ticks and tocks
There’s a world on fire
Oh lord
See the souls for hire
Oh lord
There’s a world on fire
But when are you gonna come down?
As I’m lying in a deep hole
That was dug with me in mind
I look at how grey became my soul
As my thoughts all rot and die
As I’m lying in a deep hole
I think of how quick I fell
And how you looked away as I sunk into hell
There’s a world on fire
Oh lord
See the souls for hire
Oh lord
There’s a world on fire
But when are you gonna come down?
