Big Tough World Lyrics

Big Tough World

These are days of new despair



I see it raging everywhere



Fast forward lives and neon signs



Justify the bottom line







Cynicism pays so well



Truth is only there to sell



We burn our wings upon the sun



Tumble to the ground



Silence shattered by the sound of guns







So wrap your arms around my heart



I'll hold your hand as we leap into the dark



Cause we're both blind enough to see



It's a big tough mean rough dirty



Cold cold world







Wealth parades as happiness



More and more means less and less



No tragedy remains unseen



Beaming into every home



Makes me shiver to the bone



Flesh and blood and fashion overblown
