this world is spinning around
in a swimming pool of lies
it says sex satisfies and do one dies
and love is easy to find
this world is spinning around
have you seen your father's eyes?
he says who is this girl I once held in my arms
why is this world spinning around?
It says go there and buy that
taste this and touch that
drink this and drive there
what have you to loose
but what have we to choose
with shopping malls and computer stalls
why is this world spinning around
with low budjet cars and tv stars
why is this world spinnning around
this world is spinning around
but once was lost can be found
he says I am the way and the truth and the life
you can't live apart from me
I am the vine, you are the branches
you won't bear fruit apart from me
stand up and open your eyes
then the lame and the blind will see
I love you as the father(x3)
loves me
If you stopped oh would you see
this peace inside of me
as this world is spinning around
Wrote this song last fall when I felt in the midst of the world and confused by how disillusioned we have become. I've realized that songs are basically poems put to music. Don't know why the thought never crossed my mind before. I guess all songs are a form of poetry.
