Lyrics
World Coming Down
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.
She thinks I'm Iron Man
That I don't feel pain
I don't understand why joy
Must be feigned
I'm so fortunate yet
Filled with self-hate
That the mirror shows
Me an ingrate
I could easily start
Pointing fingers
Since the blame is mine
It always lingers
That the truth it lies in
My reflection
Though this can't go on
There's no question
Yeah I know that my
World is coming down
Yeah I know I'm the one
Who brought it down
How quickly pass the days
Long is the night
Lying in bed awake
Bathed in starlight
Better to live as
King of beasts
Than as a lamb
Scared and weak
I will deny my role
As a human
Holding myself hostage
With no demands
It's better to burn
Quickly and bright
Than slowly and dull
Without a fight
