Lyrics

World I Never Made

The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.

The late show is over

And the city fast asleep

And I'm lost in a world

That's just too cold and deep

I've turned so many ways

I'm spinning like a top

And I wish that I could get off

Or get this world to stop

I'm a stranger and afraid

I'm a stranger and afraid

I'm a stranger and afraid

In a world I never made

I'm always chasing dragons

With a sword that's made of tin

So I know in my soul

There's no way I can win

I tried, oh I tried

But there's no place, no place to go

There's no one here who knows me

And no one here I know

I'm a stranger and afraid

I'm a stranger and afraid

I'm a stranger and afraid

In a world I never made
