A rose is born
To live in thorns
Face the scorn
Hold a grudge
Quick to judge
And never budge
Know and understand
The love and understand
That fellow man
The world only sleeps
Worry to me
What about you
Should you be too
Morning train
Eyes of pain
Work in vain
Cold as a rock
Walk the block
Dread the clock
The love and understand
Struggle and fear
For sight to peer
Opposite its shear
The world only sleeps
Worry to me
What about you
Should you be too
Souls in jail
Minds have failed
Hearts for sale
Minds for sale
Day and night
Left and right
All they do is fight
The scene is strange
Drives my brain slowly insane
The world only sleeps
Worry to me
What about you
Should you be too
Oh dear





The world only sleeps

The world only sleeps

A reality hides
Reality hides
And the truth it lies
Sure is sure
Close the door
On the weak and poor
But evil so blind
Destroys the mind
And hurts the kind
The world's on its knees
Worry to me
What about you
Should you be a fool?
We'll see you next time.
We'll see you next time.
We'll see you next time.
