World of Ego
I've been living long it this world of ego
I've been calling for the devil but he don't send no reply
I guess he knows that I just don't belong here
I guess he knows I'm just not worth his time
I've been working hard to sell my evil
I can't make it profit no matter how I try
I'm feeling like I wasn't meant to live here
But I won't get a way out till I die
Once when I was young
I dreamed of one above
He showed me stars he held loose in his hand
"Choose" he said, "You can have a home forever"
And I did but didn't understand
Pictures light up and crowd around my vision
I see a smiling face and clothes that sparkle and shine
I figure that he knows just where he's going
I must think that his soul is satisfied
He lays down to bed
Love by his side
And not a doubt or fear in his mind
Hears his voice echo out forever
And knows the world is kind
Maybe I could turn my ways around here
Make my heart open to my suffering kind
But I don't know if I'd make it that way either
I don't know if I really want to try
I've been living long in this world of ego
I've been calling for the devil but he don't send no reply
I guess he knows that I just don't belong here
I guess he knows I'm just not worth his time
I've been calling for the devil but he don't send no reply
I guess he knows that I just don't belong here
I guess he knows I'm just not worth his time
I've been working hard to sell my evil
I can't make it profit no matter how I try
I'm feeling like I wasn't meant to live here
But I won't get a way out till I die
Once when I was young
I dreamed of one above
He showed me stars he held loose in his hand
"Choose" he said, "You can have a home forever"
And I did but didn't understand
Pictures light up and crowd around my vision
I see a smiling face and clothes that sparkle and shine
I figure that he knows just where he's going
I must think that his soul is satisfied
He lays down to bed
Love by his side
And not a doubt or fear in his mind
Hears his voice echo out forever
And knows the world is kind
Maybe I could turn my ways around here
Make my heart open to my suffering kind
But I don't know if I'd make it that way either
I don't know if I really want to try
I've been living long in this world of ego
I've been calling for the devil but he don't send no reply
I guess he knows that I just don't belong here
I guess he knows I'm just not worth his time
