The World's An Uncomfortable Place

What were they thinking, the begining of time
With paradise given, then crossing the line
Cast from the garden
The shame on their face
The world's an uncomfortable place
The world's an uncomfortable place
Yeah, the world's an uncomfortable place
Who was the first to raise a hand in hate?
Who'll be the madman to end the human race?
While we tend to our gardens
Soon gone without a trace
The world's an uncomfortable place
The world's an uncomfortable place
Yeah, the world's an uncomfortable place
What you believe in
The color your skin
The size of your bankbook
Where will our prejudices end?
The clothes that you're wearing
The length of your hair
Of all the things that should matter
Do we notice or care?
That truth and lies can occupy the same space
That love and hate can occupy the same space
The world's an uncomfortable place
The world's an uncomfortable place
Water that's poisoned; Unbreathable air
An invisible virus, leaves streets empty in fear
Our identities stolen
Our existence erased
The world's an uncomfortable place
Yeah The world's an uncomfortable place
When will our eyes see, how blind we have been?
Pawns being played for political spin
If when looking in a mirror
You don't recognize your face
The world's an uncomfortable place
Yeah The world's an uncomfortable place
All the world's an uncomfortable place
Yeah, the world's an uncomfortable place
What were they thinking, the begining of time
With paradise given, then crossing the line
Cast from the garden
The shame on their face
The world's an uncomfortable place
The world's an uncomfortable place
Yeah, the world's an uncomfortable place
All the world's an uncomfortable place
Yeah the world's an uncomfortable place
Yeah the world's an uncomfortable place
