Fading World - Malachai

Cos you don’t need your weapons now

You’ve got to hold on to your world

Just stop and put your weapons down

You’ve got to hold on to your world

This fading world

(this land) is ahead of it’s time

Oh but you know it’s past it’s prime

In so many ways

(this land) is a miserable rock

Stuck like a foot at the end of a sock

Full of razor blades

(is mine) the right to defend at all

(is mine) to fight to the end i know

(my hand) can’t hold back the seas no more

But it’s not from man that we need defending

'cos you don’t need your weapons now

You’ve got to hold on to your world

Just stop and put your weapons down

You’ve got to hold on to your world

This fading world

(this land) has damaged the world

How many times these toes have curled

I’ve heard many tales

(this land) is riddled with lies

How many told how the seas would rise

At such heavy scale

(is mine) to know what i’ve seen and own

(is mine) the suffering and screams at home

(my hand) can’t find new orleans at all

This desperate land that seems to be ending

'cos you don’t need your weapons now

You’ve got to hold on to your world

Just stop and put your weapons down

You’ve got to hold on to your world

This fading world
