When the World Is Caving In - Karmakanic

All we got in life is time

Too many people spending mine

Played the game a bit too long

Lost my sense of right and wrong

I’ve hit the ground running

Tried to reinvent the wheel

Even climbed the highest mountain

To find the truth it would reveal

Will I ever reach the river

To wash away my sin

Will I ever see a new beginning

When my little world is caving in

Is caving in

All we got in life is time

Too many people spending mine

Played the game a bit too long

Lost my sense of right and wrong

Battle worn I soldiered on

Made it past the walls of stone

Dodged the bullets with shields of hope

Still burned by my heavy load

Will I ever reach the river

To wash away my sin

Will I ever see a new beginning

When my little world is caving in

Is caving in

Restless me, restless you

With everyone against us and

Everything to prove

Damaged me, damaged us

Flat broke and broken in the dust

Here I am, a one-man band

Flying or falling, where will I land?

The thing called love is out of reach

The harder I search, the less I see

Will I ever reach the river

To wash away my sin

Will I ever see a new beginning

When my little world is caving in

Is caving in

Was tempted by the siren’s song

That drove me off, pulled me down

Surrendered to that place below

How could I sink so low?

Trudged along winding roads

Lined with the oldest oak

The wind as my trusted guide

Drew me from a sheltered life

All we got in life is time

Too many people spending mine

Played the game a bit too long

Lost my sense of right and wrong

In search for truth I’ve lost my youth

From neon bright to faded grey

I am knocking at the gates of hell

Why can’t I unring the bell?

Will I ever reach the river?

To wash away my sin

Will I ever see a new beginning?

When my little world is caving in

When your little world is caving in
