Big Tough World Songtext / Lyric

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
