This Old World

Mamas in the kitchen for the evening chores
Daddy in his chair he can't help no more
Both lost a son in foreign war
They use to pray but they don't pray no more

Sometimes I wait for the dawn to come
But the dawn dont ever break

This old world will bring you down
Don't let this world, bring you down

Jaime's in her room in her little world
Not really sure if she's a boy or a girl
With rebel rebel on the radio
She use to pray, she don't pray no more

Sometimes I wait for the dawn to come
But the dawn dont ever break

This old world will bring you down
Don't let this world, bring you down

Ethan spends his nights as a punk rock king
Trying to quiet his anxiety
Lost his sister the year before
He still sleeps outside her door

Sometimes I wait for the dawn to come
But the dawn dont ever break, break

This old world will bring you down
Don't let this world, bring you down

Maria Stays late as a check out girl
Can't seem to find her smile anymore
Cause' a madman came into her daughter's school
And took the only life that she ever knew

Oh, Oh This old world, will bring you down
Don't let this world, bring you down

Don't bring me down
Don't bring me down
Don't bring me down
Don't bring me down
