Our Lady Peace - World On a String lyrics

I see the world on a string

It's hanging from a wire

It gets tangled up and spun around

Like the truth inside a liar

Sometimes you wanna get high

And sometimes you run and hide

Cause it eats you up and spits you out

It swallows you alive

When I'm down on my knees

And it hurts to believe (I'm bleeding)

You'll bring me back to life

When there's no songs to sing

And no flowers to bring (no feeling)

You'll bring me back to life

You'll bring me back to life

I see the world on a beach

It's sinking in the sand

Oh it tries to suck you down with it

You better get out while you can

Sometimes you wanna scream out

And sometimes you just can't

Cause your lips

Feel like they're glued together

And no one gives a damn

When I'm down on my knees

And it hurts to believe (I'm bleeding)

You'll bring me back to life

When there's no songs to sing

And no flowers to bring (no feeling)

You'll bring me back to life

You'll bring me back to life

This is the world on a string

There's no songs left to sing

Just sing

Sing

I see the good

i see the bad

The revolution

I see the happy

I see the sad

The absolution

I see hate

And I see love

When the world's on a string

When I'm down on my knees

And it hurts to believe (I'm bleeding)

You'll bring me back to life

When there's no songs to sing

And no flowers to bring (no feeling)

You'll bring me back to life

When I'm down on my knees

And it hurts to believe (I'm bleeding)

You'll bring me back to life

When there's no songs to sing

And no flowers to bring (No feeling)

And you'll bring me back to life

And you'll bring me back to life
