Our Lady Peace - World on a String Lyrics

Complimentary "World on a String" Ringtone

I see the world on a string 
It’s hanging from a wire 
It gets tangled up and spun around 
Like the truth inside a liar 
Sometimes you wanna get high 
And sometimes you run and hide 
Cause it eats you up and spits you out 
It swallows you alive 

When I’m down on my knees 
And it hurts to believe (I’m bleeding) 
You'll bring me back to life 
When there’s no songs to sing 
And no flowers to bring (no feeling) 
You'll bring me back to life 
You'll bring me back to life 

I see the world on a beach 
It’s sinking in the sand 
Oh it tries to suck you down with it 
You better get out while you can 
Sometimes you wanna scream out 
And sometimes you just can’t 
Cause your lips 
Feel like they’re glued together 
And no one gives a damn 

When I’m down on my knees 
And it hurts to believe (I’m bleeding) 
You'll bring me back to life 
When there’s no songs to sing 
And no flowers to bring (no feeling) 
You'll bring me back to life 
You’ll bring me back to life 

This is the world on a string 
There’s no songs left to sing 
Just sing 
Sing 

I see the good 
i see the bad 
The revolution 
I see the happy 
I see the sad 
The absolution 
I see hate 
And I see love 
When the world’s on a string 

I see the good 
i see the bad 
The revolution 
I see the happy 
I see the sad 
The absolution 
I see hate 
And I see love 
When the world’s on a string 

When I’m down on my knees 
And it hurts to believe (I’m bleeding) 
You'll bring me back to life 
When there’s no songs to sing 
And no flowers to bring (no feeling) 
You'll bring me back to life 

When I’m down on my knees 
And it hurts to believe (I’m bleeding) 
You'll bring me back to life 
When there’s no songs to sing 
And no flowers to bring (No feeling) 
And you’ll bring me back to life 
And you’ll bring me back to life 
And you’ll bring me back to life
