Temperance Lyrics by Brightside

The World Reversed

0

Raise your hand
If you think that most people are senseless
Some in fact, have unbearable personalities
Raise your hand
If you’ll admit there’s no plan
And accept that there’s something more to the story
Now, do it again
If you misunderstand

Reject it all
If the television should tell you the future
Assess it all
For there’s a wisdom to be gathered from life
Assess yourself
It’s for the good of your health
And self-awareness is becoming essential Now
Do it again
If you still misunderstand me

Compare yourself to the mirror image you hold
It so tight, through the flesh and to the bone
It’s alright just admit that you’re slipping
What would you tell your reflection
Ten years ago?

So if you could see you now
Would you believe you’ve found
A life walked worth the veil?
