Watch out for the breaking hearts tonight The world is coming to an end Start believing from within, arise But your systems made to blow Thus we ignite coz' The weight of the world is falling down I'm wrapped around coz' The weight of the world keeps pushing on With too many too many lies too many faults together So here we go I take your hand you take my hand whenever So here we go A heaven is not far away So here we go This is the time and the day to be irie So here we go Couldn't we start a day So here we go Couldn't we start Couldn't we start a day that makes us all smile Make us smile Too many broken... Wings are clipped now we can't fly So hold me back Bring me back to life There's a war coz' everyday we're losing everyday Fight a war within us everyday The battle's all around gotta hold our ground Coz' everyday is different everyday We're luckiest by far Coz' in the end love can do anything We're luckiest by far We can demand the right to live and say We only want the love in you To save the earth we call home But too many broken promises
