Dark World Lyrics by Luke Steele

Listen To The Water

2022

[Verse 1]
Why in the middle of the night?
Why can't I be sleepin' so tight
When all of the world
Is caught up in itself?
Why do you always wanna fight?
You know have a holy light
Heaven's in my corner
So leave tonight

[Chorus]
Help me ease the pain
Help me play the game

[Verse 2]
They're not hungry anymore
They really can't be bothered
The devil is entrepreneur
He loves fast food
What's the story with your flesh?
Is that really your best?
Go put on some clothes
And stop shamin' your kids

[Chorus]
Help me ease the pain
Help me play the game
Help me ease the pain
Help me play the game

[Instrumental Break]

[Verse 3]
Don't get tired of doin' good
Keep on keepin' it calm
Soothin' the souls of the common man
Sorry it's so complicated
We are in the Rubix cube
Each other's sides only plays for the win

[Chorus]
Help me ease the pain
Help me play the game
Help me ease the pain
Help me play the game
