Brightside - The World

We like to think we’re smart

We like to think that we advance

Compiled information isn’t taken to heart

It’s in the home, it’s the hand


But I’m not gonna sit around and wait


Is it just a moment in the life?

We accept what they give, and give in


Is it a reflection of the times?

Modern minds

Modern age

We are indifferent to change


We don’t intend to act

Unless we’re told to pretend

We don’t intend on challenging the world as it spins

But we’ll protect our right to stand


But I’m not gonna sit around and wait


The human is water, is fire, is peace, and pain

It’s simple, but the closer that we look, we find it

Harder to explain

Gaps in generation after generation
