Krazy Kyle Lapointe - The World Where We Live Lyrics

Let me tell you a little story about a marble so small
If we weren't stranded on it, we wouldn't see it at all
In these extravagant cosmos we have stumbled across
It still feels like, by God, the world revolves around us

We're given feet to go walking, but we're say up in the air
We're handed cedar and redwood and we're stripping 'em bare
Of Intelligent life can somehow exist
It's not in our presence, no it's not in our midst
In this world where we live

And there are people on one side, and people on the other
They're all mechanics and teachers and best friends and brothers
They've all got their fears and they all gotta pay their bills
If they can't then they'll steal and if there's nothing they'll kill
If you're born in this time and place, then the police, they're all pigs
But if you're born down the street, you're a cop's kid
The politicians all trying to get their piece of the pie
'Cause when it all comes crashing it's the poor ones who die
In this world where we live

I don't know what to make of it
To give myself or to give in
To this world where we live

We dance down by the seaside
Inhibitions unbound and untied
Face a mountain down and decide
"We abide to make our lives worth living"

In the eyes of a child or in the arms of a lover
In the laugh of an old friend, on the bank of a river
In the crystalline shine of a starry sky
We might not know why, but God, we're captive to this
World where we live

I don't know what to make of it
It makes me feel like a little kid
This world where we live
