This World

This world, this world

It isn't enough for me

When Heaven is so out of reach

I see, I see

You love life more than me

It's never how it should be

I need, I need

You to tell me how to be

I'm painting the sky for you and me

So far, so far

I can taste it on your tongue

The words you've said and all the songs I've sung

Compare me to the sea

Drown in poetry

I'm on fire

Compare me to the sea

Drown in poetry

I'm on fire

Too late, too late

To live any other way

When all I have to give is company

I know, I know

I don't mind being on my own

If I'm not free, then what is left of me

Compare me to the sea

Drown in poetry

I'm on fire

Compare me to the sea

Drown in poetry

I'm on fire

To give you everything's not what I want

When I'm living how I always knew I would be

To give you everything's not what I want

When I'm living how I should be

Compare me to the sea

Drown in poetry

I'm on fire

Compare me to the sea

Drown in poetry

I'm on fire
