This World

There's tarnish on the Golden Rule

And I wanna jump from this ship of fools

Show me a place where hope is young

And a people who are not afraid to love



This world has nothing for me

And this world has everything

All that I could want and nothing that I need



This world is making me drunk on the spirit of fear

So when You say, 'Who will go?"

I am nowhere near



Cause this world has nothing for me

And this world has everything

All that I could want and nothing that I need



But the least of these look like criminals to me

So I leave Christ on the street



This world has held my hand and has led me into intolerance

So now I'm breaking up, now I'm waking up

I'm making up for lost time



This world has nothing for me

And this world has everything

All that I could want and nothing that I need [2x]
